Superna

Superna develops cyberstorage and data security software that protects unstructured file and object data at the storage layer. Its platform is designed to help organizations detect ransomware, insider misuse, exfiltration, and other malicious activity earlier, contain incidents automatically, and recover clean data across on-prem, hybrid cloud, and cloud-connected environments.

Superna focuses on closing the gap between traditional cybersecurity controls and the point where attacks ultimately impact data. It brings together data security, disaster recovery, orchestration, analytics, exposure management, and air-gapped recovery capabilities so enterprises can strengthen cyber resilience, improve recoverability, and support compliance and forensic operations for large-scale storage estates.

Offerings, Capabilities, and Integrations

Superna’s offerings center on real-time monitoring of file and object activity, behavior-based threat detection, automated containment, precision recovery, disaster recovery orchestration, audit reporting, and unstructured data analytics. It also supports file-to-object and object-to-file data movement for backup, archive, and hybrid cloud workflows, along with data-layer exposure management that helps teams prioritize risk based on where sensitive data is actually used and exposed.

Superna supports a broad mix of storage and data environments, including Dell, NetApp, Hitachi, Qumulo, VAST, Pure, Windows, and AWS-oriented deployments. Its integration model extends storage-layer signals and actions into existing security and operations tooling, including SIEM, SOAR, endpoint, ITSM, and backup workflows, with examples such as CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, Splunk, ServiceNow, and Veeam.
