Solution Sheets: CTERA Enterprise File Services Platform
Cyber-resilient file platform from any edge to any cloud.
Data Services
Achieve Greater Data Control, Security & Visibility
Integrate seamlessly with third-party applications using CTERA’s Data Services. They give you unparalleled control, true cyber resiliency, and a window-pane view over your data, all while running our powerful deployment tools for virus scanning, auditing, and compliance.
Efficient Data Services for Secure Storage, Access, and Compliance Management
Enhance Auditing & Compliance
Capture and aggregate file-access audit events globally. Forward events to Varonis, Netwrix, Splunk, or any syslog-compliant SIEM system for enhanced visibility and compliance.
Activate Multi-Layer Virus Scanning
Protecting your entire data estate from malware is as easy as clicking a checkbox. With embedded antivirus software at the edge, all file activity is scanned in real time. Then, a second layer of scanning kicks in when files are ingested into the global file system, ensuring comprehensive security. This setup provides strong protection even if an edge filer is compromised, in compliance with our zero trust principles.
Strengthen Ransomware Protection
Defend against ransomware with continuous replication, AI-based ransomware protection, and instant recovery, ensuring your data is always secure and recoverable.
Build Custom Data Pipelines
Programmatically access data, metadata, and audit streams with real-time file change notifications. Build custom data pipelines or integrate with low-code platforms for seamless data processing and analytics.
Unify File & Object Access
Utilize CTERA Fusion for a single namespace across SMB, NFS, and S3, enabling streamlined data pipeline automation, data science, and analytics across your global file system.

FAQ
Can CTERA integrate with existing security and analytics tools for enterprise-wide monitoring and compliance?
Sure! We integrate with enterprise-grade security and analytics platforms through an extensive set of platform connectors, supporting protocols like REST, Syslog, and SNMP. This enables seamless integration with SIEM, IDS/IPS, and SOC environments. CTERA also provides real-time auditing, file integrity monitoring, and detailed event logging that integrates with tools like Splunk, Elasticsearch, and other big data platforms to enable advanced analytics, automated incident response, and compliance reporting.
What are the benefits of CTERA's programmable deployment tools for automating infrastructure and security tasks?
Our programmable deployment tools, including REST APIs, Terraform, and Ansible playbooks, allow IT teams to automate infrastructure provisioning, configuration management, and security integrations. This automation enhances cyber resiliency by enabling automated virus scanning, policy enforcement, auditing, and regulatory compliance checks. Additionally, these tools support immutable infrastructure practices, ensuring consistent deployment across hybrid cloud environments.
How does CTERA Fusion optimize data accessibility for data science and analytics workloads?
We do it by utilizing distributed edge caching and adaptive data tiering to ensure high availability for analytics workloads. It supports real-time data synchronization across edge locations, enabling data scientists and engineers to work with the latest data without latency issues. The global namespace ensures that object storage can be seamlessly integrated into analytics workflows (e.g., Hadoop, Spark) while maintaining compatibility with traditional file-based applications.
How does CTERA support secure and compliant data management for highly regulated industries?
We provide end-to-end data encryption (AES-256) for both file and object storage, with full audit trails and secure key management via integrated KMS or customer-supplied HSMs. The platform is compliant with industry regulations, such as HIPAA, GDPR, and FIPS 140-2, ensuring that data is securely managed and stored according to compliance standards. Our data governance features also include file lifecycle management, access control, and automated compliance reporting for highly regulated environments.
