Synology introduced an entirely redesigned DiskStation Manager (DSM) in the online event, 2021 AND BEYOND. DSM is the unified operating system powering Synology data management solutions, and version 7.0 brings new technologies for storage, backup, and hybrid cloud. "Unprecedented quantities of data have undergone processing, whether for data analytics, artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, telemedicine, or for countless more innovations. All of this is making a huge impact on our lifestyle and the way we do business, forming a "data economy" where owning more data gives you a competitive edge against others," said Philip Wong, Synology founder and Chief Executive

One of our most important goals in 2019 was “reliability.” To get there, we changed many of our internal development policies and methods. Let’s take a brief look back at what we did, and a sneak peek at what's coming in 2020. DSM We made eight releases1 in 2019, a significantly lower amount than in previous years. It isn’t a sign that we’re slowing down development but instead reflects our new focus on reliability. We adopted a slower update cadence to allow more time for additional rounds of internal testing. Stages a typical DSM update goes through: Automated In-Development Testing

How AES and RSA work together to protect C2 backup data You cannot be too careful when it comes to protecting your valuable assets. Suppose you have a collection of precious heirloom jewelry. You put it in a jewelry box with a lock to protect against theft. But it’s simply not safe enough, so you turn to a bank and store your jewels in a safe deposit box securely kept in a vault for extra protection and peace of mind. We value data confidentiality as much as you value your valuables. That’s why we employ AES-256 and RSA-2048 encryption technologies

Even 11 nines are not immune to human error With more businesses moving their mission-critical data to the cloud, it is essential that the cloud platform delivers high levels of availability and durability, making sure your data remains accessible and intact whenever you need it. “Designed to provide 99.999999999% durability and 99.99% availability of objects over a given year.” Amazon S3 quotes the number of nines (“9s”) as the metrics for the level of data protection and operational performance. Yet there seems to be an arms race going on among major cloud providers with each trying to reach as many
