I don't know about you, but I am more than ready for Spring; though I could definitely skip the rain. Wiping muddy dog paws after every walk is getting old! On the bright side, who else is ready for some Reds baseball? I have a few exciting updates and resources to share with the community: 🚀 PUG Meeting Update charles_sheppar and I are currently hard at work on the next PUG meeting.

Features like SafeMode and Pure1 Security Assessments act as a resilient last line of defense. If you want to see these tools in action, we recently hosted an expert-led demo on building a foundation for cyber resilience.

Hey Cincy PUG, I found a cool feature for detecting changes on your Flash Array. Looking at Data Protection under the Assessment menu I saw a lightning bolt on one of my arrays. That lightning bolt led me to an evaluation showing that there had been a significant drop in DRR for a group of volumes. Turns out that change was benign because one of my teammates refreshed an environment causing the change in the Data Reduction Ratio. I see this as just another way Pure 1 Manage can help admins detect threats or problems with data sets. How are you using the tools in Pure1? Share something with the group! -CharlesThe SafeMode Seance: A Cyber Security Haunting
