*Out-of-the-box immutability
Veeam customers are refreshing their current on-prem backup storage and looking for a secure, simple, and powerful, ransomware-proof solution that won’t break the budget and provides fast backup and Instant Recovery. Ootbi, which stands for out-of-the-box immutability is a storage target appliance that integrates seamlessly with Veeam, guarantees the security of its backups and purpose-built to be the best storage for Veeam.
In this paper, you will learn about the options for Veeam customers looking to upgrade and ransomware-proof their on-premises backup storage, how Ootbi helps you to implement a Zero Trust Data Resilience (ZTDR) model for better backup infrastructure security and why Ootbi is the best storage for Veeam.
The Zero Trust model represents the best practices for organizations seeking to protect and secure their data and business. However, this model has not been substantively applied to data backup and recovery—until now. Zero Trust Data Resilience (ZTDR) is a new model that extends the principles of Zero Trust to address the data backup and recovery use case.
Learn more about Zero Trust and how it applies to backup and recovery infrastructure, Zero Trust Data Resilience (ZTDR) principles and architecture, and how to ransomware-proof your backup infrastructure and storage.
The distinctive quality about Ootbi is that it’s custom-built not just for Veeam storage but for the Veeam channel as well. Here’s where it helps to know that Object First was co-founded by Ratmir Timashev and Andrei Baronov, the same two people who co-founded Veeam. Unwavering, long-term commitment to the channel is a big part of what turned their earlier company into the powerhouse it is today, and is a deeply embedded part of their new company too.
The Business Challenge When it comes to protecting backups, speed is everything, and downtime can be costly. A strategic recovery plan is crucial to maintain integrity and avoid disastrous consequences. According to the Ponemon Institute, the average cost of one minute of downtime is $9,000, making the cost per hour over $500,000. Organizations like Centerbase,…
The university needed a solution that provides true data immutability, is simple to deploy, seamlessly integrates with its existing technology, meets security compliance requirements, and solves the issue of slow recovery times that can make ransomware attacks so damaging to operations and reputation.
Cyber attacks are pervasive, and cyber-risk continues to increase as cybercriminals zoom in on backups and target the data protection infrastructure. This means that data protection solutions must include cyber-recovery, be easy to use, and also be cost efficient in these challenging economic times. This is especially true in the mid-market where fewer IT resources may be available. That’s why Veeam customers should consider Object First appliances to stop ransomware in its tracks.
In spring 2023, Object First launched a study to gauge consumer perspectives on ransomware attacks and their expectations from companies entrusted with their personal information. Gathering responses from 1,000 U.S. consumers aged 18 and above, the survey provided key insights into varied generational responses to ransomware incidents. The data underscores the imperative need for businesses to bolster their ransomware prevention and data recovery strategies to uphold customer trust and retain loyalty in the face of increasing cyber threats.
Modern data protection solutions need to be able to do a lot. They must have solid cyber-recovery and hybrid cloud protection capabilities. They must be quick to deploy and easy to manage. And they must be cost-efficient. Enterprise Strategy Group believes that Object First is well positioned with its Ootbi S3-compatable storage appliance to help Veeam users tackle these challenges head on.
