What's New in Superna Cyberstorage 2.15.0
What's New in 2.15.0
Version 2.15.0 introduces a completely redesigned user interface across Data Security, Disaster Recovery, and AirGap, along with new snapshot retention and recovery capabilities, snapshot deduplication, and expanded integration fields.
Highlights in this release include:
- Redesigned User Interface for Data Security, Disaster Recovery, and AirGap, spanning dashboards, failover workflows, and detection and audit tools
- Retain Snapshots to extend a threat detection event's snapshot expiry directly from its action menu
- Recovery Manager Retention Extended to 120 days for active events, up from 7
- Cyber Recovery Manager for Active Auditor Events, extending snapshot-based recovery to Mass Delete, Data Loss Prevention, and Custom Triggers
- Snapshot Reuse and Deduplication to cut down on redundant PowerScale snapshots
- Automated Historical Event Ingestion on Upgrade to seed Application Fingerprinting with existing event history
- New Webhook Payload Fields added to the Zero Trust integration payload
Redesigned User Interface
Data Security, Disaster Recovery, and AirGap all move to a completely redesigned 2.15.0 user interface. Threat Detections, Detection Controls, Data Auditing, and Health Check in Data Security; the DR Dashboard, failover workflows, and readiness views in Disaster Recovery; and AirGap's monitoring and configuration screens have all been rebuilt with a modernized, streamlined design and reorganized navigation, making day-to-day tasks easier to find and faster to work through.
Retain Snapshots
Snapshots taken by a threat detection event can now have their expiry extended directly from the event's own action menu — no need to configure a separate scheduled snapshot ahead of time just to buy more investigation time. Select Take an Action → Retain Snapshots on a Threat Detections event to push out the expiry of every snapshot tied to that event, either to a specific date or by adding an extension interval to the current expiry.
Recovery Manager Retention Extended
Recovery Manager's event retention has been significantly extended. User activity for active events is now retained for 120 days, up from the previous default of 7 — so investigations that take longer than a week no longer lose the ability to run Recovery Manager against an archived event. Retention still drops to 3 days once an event is closed.
Cyber Recovery Manager for Active Auditor Events
Active Auditor events now support Cyber Recovery Manager, extending the same snapshot-based data recovery workflow used for Ransomware Defender events to Active Auditor triggers (Mass Delete, Data Loss Prevention, and Custom Triggers).
Snapshot Reuse and Deduplication
Ransomware Defender and Easy Auditor Active Events now check for a recent, reusable snapshot on the same (or a parent) path before creating a new one, cutting down on redundant PowerScale snapshots when multiple events or users trigger snapshot creation on the same path in quick succession. The reuse window defaults to 60 minutes and is configurable.
Automated Historical Event Ingestion on Upgrade
When upgrading to 2.14.1 or 2.15.0, historical events are now automatically ingested into the Application Fingerprinting learning database as part of the upgrade itself, including events in both the False Positive and Unresolved states — giving AFP an initial baseline of known-safe behavior with no manual upload required.
New Webhook Payload Fields
The Zero Trust webhook payload for Data Security events now includes several new fields in extraParams: alertType, threatCategory, threatDescription, source, and sourceType. These fields are appended to the existing payload and do not affect existing integrations.
