The NetApp Data Protection and Security Assessment is available for customers both as a standalone security assessment and as a recurring security validation service for businesses and organisations running on NetApp storage infrastructure. The service enhances the resilience and security of our customers' storage by pinpointing recovery risks, validating data protection policies, and addressing security gaps.

“As one of NetApp's largest EMEA partners and launch partner for DPSA, we are thrilled about the opportunity to combine Proact's extensive experience and capabilities with the DPSA frameworks and reporting standards from NetApp. I am also excited about our contribution to the development of DPSA based on our technical knowledge and understanding of customer needs, says Danny Duggal, Head of Cybersecurity Business & CISO Operations at Proact. "This will benefit our customers as the service will bring yet another dimension to how we can help them build a multi-layered defense against cyber threats.”

"Proact meets our high requirements for capabilities to conduct the service on behalf of NetApp, ensuring that our joint customers utilise all the security features available to protect their data, to make use of next-level security reporting, and to enable fast recovery in case of incidents," says Jenni Flinders, Senior Vice President, Worldwide Partner Organization, at NetApp. “It also underscores the strength of both our partnership with Proact and their advanced skills within NetApp technologies.”

The DPSA service is available in the Nordic region (Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland) as of 1 April 2024, with an ambition to scale across all countries within the Proact group during 2024.
