Enhanced cybersecurity and data protection

TS-264 is loaded with comprehensive privilege settings and security measures. Besides, there are abundant apps that help ensure optimal NAS protection against threats like malware and hackers.

Account security

Supports Azure Active Directory Domain Services (Azure AD DS), LDAP, and Windows ACL to help IT staff efficiently manage user accounts and access rights for multiple NAS systems. Use 2-Step Authentication for all user accounts to protect against brute force attacks.

Secure remote access

myQNAPcloud Link allows convenient remote connection to NAS through the Internet. Or you can use QVPN to set up a VPN connection to the NAS with enhanced security.

NAS Firewall

QuFirewall restricts and blocks suspicious packets sent by proxy servers and the onion routing (Tor) based on user rules. QuFirewall also dynamically updates its block list based on detected malicious packets.

Malware Protection

Regularly scan your TS-264 using the latest malware definitions. If infected files are detected, they are immediately removed to ensure NAS data security.

A health check for your hard drives

Hard drives are at the heart of your NAS, and ensuring their long-term health and reliability is absolutely crucial. QNAP provides various methods and tools to help you monitor hard drive health, ensuring that you can take proactive decisions to safeguard your data and files.

S.M.A.R.T. and back block scanning

If any of the S.M.A.R.T. values are reported as abnormal, or bad blocks are detected, you can take early action and replace drives before potential data loss occurs.

DA Drive Analyzer

The DA Drive Analyzer leverages ULINK cloud-based AI to predict the expected lifespan of drives, assisting you in planning future drive replacements to protect against NAS downtime and data loss.

Seagate® IronWolf™ Health Management

When using supported IronWolf™ or IronWolf Pro™ hard drives, overall system reliability is improved by providing you with actionable prevention, intervention, and recovery options.

Extend hardware warranty up to 5 years

The TS-264 is backed by a 3-year warranty at no additional cost. You can also purchase a warranty extension that extends your warranty coverage up to 5 years.
