Pure Storage is an industry leader in data storage technologies, also offering Portworx, a trusted Kubernetes Data Platform which allows for the deployment and management of containers and modern databases at scale in production.  One of the key strengths of Pure Storage is its robust security policies, certifications, and guidelines that help customers maintain the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of their data.

Pure Storage provides customers with timely information, guidance, and mitigation options to minimize risks associated with security vulnerabilities.

Proactive Issue Mitigation Without a Purity Version Upgrade

Unlike regular Purity upgrades, Purity Optimizations can occur outside of a normal Purity upgrade cycle. This is significant for organizations that have strict change controls for regular upgrades, or can only upgrade at fixed intervals. Purity Optimizations allow Pure arrays to receive alerts to proactively mitigate issues, independent of a Purity upgrade cycle.  Please see Purity Optimizations for additional information on how most security vulnerabilities can be remediation via self service opt-in patch/bundle application.  (NOTE: Security patch/bundle are applicable to active versions of Purity only.  EoL versions of Purity will not be supported for security vulnerability patch/bundle application.  Please see Pure's Product Life Cycle Overview for additional information on active versions of Purity (OE) Operating Environment). 

Proactive Issue Mitigation via Purity Version Upgrade

We recommend that our customers run the most recent version of the software available and apply any security updates at the earliest opportunity. This is an important step to ensure that security vulnerabilities are addressed promptly, and the system remains secure.  (NOTE: Security vulnerabilities are addressed in active versions of Purity only.  EoL versions of Purity will not be supported for security vulnerability fix/integration or patch/bundle application.  Please see Pure's Product Life Cycle Overview for additional information on active versions of Purity (OE) Operating Environment).
