Cyber Resilience, Simplified
Key takeaways: PowerProtect One is Dell’s new unified cyber resilience platform that simplifies protection without sacrificing flexibility. It brings together centralized management, intelligent automation and secure, efficient, immutable protection storage — helping organizations reduce complexity, strengthen recovery confidence and protect critical data at scale without vendor lock‑in.
Data is the lifeblood of modern organizations. It fuels innovation, connects people and systems and drives business forward. But as data environments expand across core, cloud and edge, protecting that data has become increasingly complex — at a time when threats continue to grow in frequency and sophistication.
To address this reality, we’re introducing PowerProtect One: a new, unified approach to cyber resilience.
The tradeoffs organizations shouldn’t have to make
In conversations with customers, two requirements come up repeatedly. Organizations want the flexibility of an open ecosystem — the freedom to use the tools and platforms that best suit their needs. And they want integrated management that simplifies operations and improves control.
Historically, they’ve been forced to choose between the two. Flexible environments often come with fragmented tools and disjointed workflows, while tightly integrated systems can introduce vendor lock-in and limit choice. We believe these tradeoffs are no longer acceptable. Cyber resilience should empower teams, not constrain them.
What is PowerProtect One
PowerProtect One is Dell’s answer to this challenge: a unified cyber resilience platform that brings together management, orchestration, and secure protection storage into a single, intelligent experience.
Designed to protect business critical data across any environment, PowerProtect One simplifies how organizations build and operate cyber resilience—without forcing them to abandon the heterogeneous ecosystems they already rely on.

Built on the combined strengths of PowerProtect Data Manager and PowerProtect Data Domain, the platform combines proven cyber resilience software with industry-leading secure protection storage, delivering centralized visibility, intelligent automation and a strong, dependable foundation for recovery.
The result is cyber resilience that’s easier to adopt, easier to operate and easier to trust.
Addressing the growing complexity of cyber resilience
IT teams today face immense pressure. Data volumes are growing at unprecedented rates, pushing traditional protection models to their limits. At the same time, cyber threats — especially ransomware — are increasingly targeting backup data itself, aiming to eliminate recovery options altogether.
In response, many organizations have accumulated multiple point solutions over time. While well-intentioned, this fragmented approach often leads to operational sprawl: too many consoles, inconsistent policies and complex recovery workflows. When an incident occurs, that complexity can slow response times and increase risk.
PowerProtect One is designed to cut through this chaos. Deployment is 75% faster,¹ and by unifying management and orchestration across environments, it reduces management overhead by 50%,² helping organizations move from fragmented protection to coordinated cyber resilience.
Open by design. Integrated by experience.
Modern enterprises depend on a wide range of platforms — on-premises infrastructure, multiple clouds, diverse applications and evolving technologies. PowerProtect One embraces this reality with an open, integrated architecture that works with both Dell and third-party backup tools.
Rather than forcing change, PowerProtect One brings existing tools under a centralized management umbrella. Teams can continue using the applications and workflows they know, while gaining improved visibility, standardized policies and automated operations across the environment.
This combination of openness and integration allows organizations to modernize at their own pace — protecting existing investments while simplifying day-to-day operations.
Three pillars of true cyber resilience
PowerProtect One is built on three core pillars that address the most critical questions organizations face when evaluating their cyber resilience strategy.
An unbreakable foundation
Cyber resilience starts with trust in your recovery data. PowerProtect One uses the secure, immutable architecture of Data Domain to provide an unbreakable foundation that protects information at a massive scale. Trusted by over 15,000 customers3 and ranked number one in customer satisfaction4, Data Domain ensures your backup data remains safe, even in the face of sophisticated attacks.
Features like data immutability, encryption and logical air gapping give you the confidence to operate securely and move your business forward. You can effortlessly scale your protection and keep costs predictable with the world’s best data reduction5 and efficient resource utilization.
Frictionless operations
Security and resilience shouldn’t come at the cost of operational complexity. PowerProtect One delivers frictionless operations through centralized visibility, integrated management and intelligent automation.
By reducing manual tasks and eliminating redundant workflows, IT teams can spend less time managing tools and more time supporting strategic initiatives. Automated discovery, policy enforcement and recovery workflows improve consistency and reduce the risk of human error across environments.
Trusted resilience
When a cyber event occurs, confidence matters. Trusted resilience means knowing your data is protected, your recovery points are reliable and your teams can act quickly and decisively.
PowerProtect delivers that confidence through decades of innovation, enterprise-grade reliability and proven performance at scale — protecting hundreds of exabytes of data for organizations worldwide. This is resilience teams can rely on when it matters most.
Designed for real-world outcomes
PowerProtect One is focused on delivering outcomes:
-
- Protect critical data across any environment with speed, scale and consistency
- Simplify and automate operations through centralized visibility
- Reduce complexity and operational risk across your environment
- Strengthen recovery confidence with secure, immutable protection storage
These outcomes help organizations shift from reactive protection to proactive cyber resilience.
Moving forward with confidence
As data continues to grow and environments become more distributed, cyber resilience must evolve. Fragmented approaches and rigid systems are no longer sufficient.
PowerProtect One represents a new era: one where openness and integration work together, where operations are simplified and where organizations can protect what matters most — without compromise.
