Zerto Capabilities for Financial Services
As a financial institution, you seek to drive modern service delivery without disruption to maintain your competitive advantage. Yet, this vision may surface significant IT challenges around availability, security, and regulatory compliance. Zerto can help you achieve streamlined service delivery while eliminating unplanned downtime by:
- Ensuring availability and protection of critical data
- Mitigating the risks and high costs of cyber attacks
- Clearly demonstrating protection of regulated information and meeting compliance objectives
- Simplifying and automating operations on-premises and in the cloud
With the single, scalable Zerto solution for ransomware resilience, disaster recovery, and cloud mobility, you can realize enterprise-class protection and cost savings, while accelerating your pace of innovation.
Ransomware: It's Not a Matter of "If", but "When"
Time is money, and maximizing uptime is especially critical for financial services organizations. Ransomware is expected to attack a business, consumer, or device every 2 seconds by 2031, up from every 11 seconds in 2021.
With the average cost of a data breach in the financial sector in 2021 estimated at $5.72 million, it’s easy to see why an attack could be so crippling.
If ransomware strikes, Zerto helps you to:
- Act quickly with early warnings of a ransomware attack
- Zero in on when the attack began
- Resume operations at scale in minutes
- Recover to a state seconds before an attack
- Take the risk out of your recovery with instant, non-disruptive testing
- Achieve rapid air-gapped recovery with Zerto Cyber Resilience Vault

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
"I no longer have to make any excuses or explain why a recovery operation failed. We finally have a simple system allowing us to protect all our on-premises workloads, test with ease, and document the steps required for our regulators. Zerto allows us to protect our virtual environment from disruption and has saved us time and money."

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
"The most valuable feature is Zerto’'s ability to synchronize data to the remote destination prior to the actual live migration date. This saves a massive amount of time during the actual migrations and has been extremely beneficial. Having the data already synchronized on the evening of the migrations makes the final moves fast, easy, and seamless."
