Sunset Grown is a part of Masternardy Produce. We are the largest manufacturer and distributor of produce within North America. Masternardy is a critical piece when you think of our food supply in North America because we're a multi-brand, multi-product company. We ship all over the world. We pioneered commercial greenhouse and do a lot of R&D, and we have 500 other brands underneath continued trials right now. So keeping this information secure is a top priority for us. Downtime from a business impact for Masternardy is a lot different than some of the other organizations. With produce, it goes bad as a time to life, and if you don't get it out properly and in time, it's not gonna hit quality checks. And it has a downward spiral effect because it takes time to grow things, and it can really impact our business. It can have reputational damage. You can lose your retailers. You can lose your customers. It's very critical for us at Masternardy. The natural transition with Rubrik is it was always our phenomenal backup and recovery solutions. With Rubrik already doing our backup and recovery, we were able to kind of just turn on data security posture management and instantly start to see how many sensitive files we had, how many were stale, who had access to that, and make swift action. We added data security posture management to Rubrik. It helped us get bigger visibility and work, and have more synergy with infrastructure teams. The power of Rubrik is it's already touching all of your data, and when you turn on data security posture management, you instantly get that visibility, so you can quickly prioritize your risk. We recently added data threat analytics, which we use for threat hunting, threat monitoring, anomaly detection. These features helped us to be able to not only restore our data and get back in business, but restore to secure points in time. Our mission at Masternity is to deliver fresh produce year-round to our consumers. Rubrik has given us assurance that we can restore to secure points in time and prioritize data security risk to ensure that we can deliver on that promise.
