Catalogic Software Enhances Data Protection with DPX 4.13 Release

Catalogic Software announced the release of DPX 4.13, the latest version of its enterprise backup and recovery solution that addresses critical cybersecurity challenges facing modern organizations. The update focuses on ensuring backup reliability and cyber-resilience through automated verification processes and enhanced protection mechanisms against threats like ransomware.

Unlike most backup products that require integration of separate vendors for software, storage, and ransomware protection—creating complexity and multiple points of failure—DPX delivers a unified, software-defined platform that operates on existing organizational hardware. This integrated approach protects against various threats from accidental deletions to sophisticated ransomware attacks, ensuring every backup remains immutable, encrypted, verified, and ready for clean recovery.

DPX 4.13 introduces significant advancements including automated backup integrity checks, proactive malware scans, restore point selection, and seamless network reconfiguration. These features enable organizations to validate recoverability, strengthen cyber-resilience, and streamline disaster recovery operations from a single platform. The enhanced capabilities provide critical assurance that backups are not only secure but also functionally recoverable in complex restore scenarios.

Key enhancements in the new version include Backup Verification with new safeguards to ensure backups are recoverable and malware-free, Rapid Return to Production (RRP) with enhanced orchestrated disaster recovery for VMware environments for faster recovery and improved recovery time and point objectives, and Improved vStor Ransomware Defense where GuardMode now scans agentless VMware and block-level backup jobs in vStor to detect threats before restoration, preventing reinfection while utilizing existing hardware infrastructure.

Ryan Kaw, Vice President of Sales at Catalogic Software, emphasized the significance of these developments, stating that DPX 4.13 raises the standard for backup reliability and cyber-resilience by giving customers confidence in their backup recoverability, security, and flexibility.
