LARRCC’s IT infrastructure was strained by siloed IT solutions, including bare-metal servers, tape backups, and a legacy Commvault solution. As workloads shifted to public cloud in Azure and AWS, fragmentation became inevitable—escalating security risk and operational complexity, further exacerbated by:
Lack of backup immutability and increasing cyber threats against public sector organizations
Insufficient visibility, monitoring, and threat protection in the cloud
Increasing costs of legacy IT solutions and public cloud
With 5.6M constituents relying on tamper-proof, accurate election data, LARRCC ultimately chose Rubrik for its blend of security and simplicity, achieving:
From several days to <30 minutes
By eliminating legacy backup tasks and tool failures
From exfiltration, annually
LARRCC entrusted critical election data to Rubrik for its native immutability and air-gapped backups using Rubrik Cloud Vault. Paired with Rubrik’s ransomware warranty and round-the-clock recovery hotline, Rubrik provided the assurance the county needed for its highly sensitive public data. The department’s small IT team was equally impressed by Rubrik’s ease of use; the intuitive UI, streamlined workflows, and efficient backups freed the team from spending up-to 8 hours on weekends backing up large datasets and resolving backup issues. Buoyed by Rubrik’s efficiency and security, LARRCC is able to accelerate their cloud adoption, moving business-critical applications and sensitive data to cloud with confidence, while consolidating from multiple backup solutions, including Commvault and Azure-native, to a single, trusted platform.
Consistent, hands-on support—from proof of concept to full deployment in under two days—reinforced the decision, demonstrating that Rubrik could not only replace legacy tools but also serve as a dedicated partner in strengthening the County’s overall security posture.
With Rubrik providing a unified dashboard and a single pane of glass for setting SLAs and monitoring both on-prem and cloud workloads, LARRCC has transformed backup operations from a manual headache into a routine afterthought. As a result, they have been able to reallocate time and personnel toward more strategic initiatives, including cloud optimization, infrastructure automation, and supporting key business transformation projects in the elections space.
Coupled with Rubrik’s anomaly detection scanning and threat monitoring, LARRCC is now able to detect suspicious activity early and respond to potential threats in under 30 minutes in stark comparison to what used to take several days, exacerbated by the complexity of accessing backup data and limited visibility. Rubrik’s immutable backups, automated anomaly detection, and streamlined recovery workflows have significantly improved LARRCC’s ability to detect, contain, and recover from security incidents quickly and confidently.
By embracing Rubrik’s unified, secure, and cloud-ready data protection, the LA County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk can maintain its public service mandate—ensuring vital records are accurate, election data is unwaveringly accessible and secure, and constituents continue to receive the safe, accountable governance they deserve.
We are now able to detect suspicious activity early and respond to potential threats in under 30 minutes, compared to what used to take several days. Rubrik’s immutable backups, automated anomaly detection, and streamlined recovery workflows have transformed our ability to detect, contain, and recover from security incidents quickly and confidently.
