“Our GDPI survey results reaffirm that customers want modern, simple and resilient data protection solutions,” Emsley said. “Our new offerings help customers increase performance, efficiency and security, while providing deeper integration into Dell’s infrastructure portfolio.”

“With the exponential growth of data, generative AI presents organizations with opportunities to streamline processes, improve decision-making and drive innovation, but it also extends the attack surface for cyberattacks – especially with trained models, which are quickly becoming one of the most valuable assets for enterprises,” said Arthur Lewis, president of Dell Technologies’ infrastructure solutions group. “With this expanding digital landscape that exposes more vulnerability gaps, companies are increasing their reliance on Dell to help protect their data wherever it resides with trusted data protection and AI offerings.”
