Asigra Teams with iXsystems to Unveil Cloud Backup V14 for FreeNAS

New Asigra Cloud Backup Plug-in for FreeNAS Provides Advanced Backup Capabilities for up to
10 Systems and 10 Cloud Accounts at No Charge.

Toronto, Canada, June 11, 2019 --(PR.com)-- Asigra Inc., a leading cloud backup, recovery and restore
software provider since 1986, today announced the Asigra Cloud Backup Plug-in for FreeNAS. The
software-based solution combines iXsystems' FreeNAS storage operating system and the new Asigra
Cloud Backup V14 plug-in for FreeNAS for comprehensive data protection featuring powerful
anti-ransomware capabilities. For a limited time, the solution is free to companies protecting up to ten
systems and ten cloud accounts.

With the expansion of Asigra's strategic relationship with iXsystems, the hundreds of thousands of
FreeNAS systems currently deployed globally can now be optimized as turnkey backup systems using the
Asigra Cloud Backup V14 plug-in. Users can run the plug-in for FreeNAS to enable fully agentless
backup of all devices on the company's network. Asigra automatically gathers data from designated
desktops, laptops, servers, mobile devices, and even cloud sources, then compresses, encrypts, and
deduplicates the data before it is sent to the FreeNAS system for secure storage.

Available with the Asigra FreeNAS backup system is a sophisticated signature-less malware detection
engine that identifies and quarantines unauthorized or malicious embedded code, including unknown and
zero-day attacks, from penetrating backup and replication streams. By continually scanning backup data,
ransomware attacks are detected and automatically prevented from impacting the backup and recovery
processes.

“iXsystems is committed to providing customers with an excellent open source platform for storage and
plugins,” said Brett Davis, Executive Vice President, iXsystems. “With Asigra backup now available for
the FreeNAS platform, small business customers can rely on this advanced backup platform with turnkey
simplicity.”

Asigra FreeNAS Cloud Backup is a software-based solution configured with the company's latest
software, version 14. The software converges data protection and cyber security to counter rapidly
growing malware attacks on backup data, including ransomware Attack-Loops™. The new appliance
protects a full range of backup targets, protecting data on laptops, desktops, servers, mobile devices and
more. The fully agentless backup solution manages data volumes with global data deduplication and
provides full encryption with FIPS 140-2 support. The solution offers rapid data restoration that limits
downtime and provides automatic file versioning and point-in-time restoration.

“As a leading provider of backup for businesses and other organizations, we are excited to announce
Asigra FreeNAS Cloud Backup to our line of products,” said Eran Farajun, Executive Vice President,
Asigra. “Building upon the legacy of the highly acclaimed Asigra TrueNAS Backup Appliance, we now
bring this powerful technology to small business and departmental enterprise customers that require the
industry's best data protection available.”
