Relying on reactive backup alone is no longer enough.

In this episode of Smarter Strategic Thinking, we sit down with Panzura’s CTO to explore how their hybrid cloud file and data services platform is built for cyber resiliency, data security, governance and compliance.

We discuss how Panzura combines real-time anomaly detection based on machine learning, immutability, and detailed audit logging to detect threats quickly and recover from attacks in minutes – often without end users realising anything happened.

You’ll also hear how their distributed file system lets global teams collaborate on the same data set without creating silos, and how AI is turning “passive storage” into intelligent data services.

In this episode:

• Panzura’s role and focus going into 2026 and beyond
• Why cyber resiliency, governance and data access are still major pain points
• How their platform uses ML-based anomaly detection, immutability and audit logs
• Distributed file services for global offices and financial markets
• Moving from passive storage to intelligent, AI-driven data services
• Why backup is reactive – and what full resiliency really looks like
• Behaviour-based ransomware defence and recovery in minutes
• Intelligent infrastructure and what IT leaders should expect in the next 2–5 years

This episode explores how enterprise storage is shifting away from cloud-only strategies and toward hybrid, performance-driven deployments using modern NAS platforms.

Tom from QNAP shares insights on:

• Using NAS as primary data storage
• NVMe, 25G networking & multi-petabyte scaling
• Ransomware protection with immutable backups
• Supporting AI, VMs, and high-demand workloads
• Real-world use cases across public sector & media

This is a must-listen for technology leaders rethinking data architecture, cost strategy, backup resilience, and performance in 2025.
