Ransomware groups target backups first. They know that without clean recovery points, you have no choice but to pay. Your backup infrastructure should be part of your security strategy, not just your disaster recovery plan. Businesses rely on Veeam for this. Veeam is data management and backup software used primarily for virtualized environments.
Main purposes:
- Backing up data
- Recovering (restoring) data
- Ensuring high availability and disaster recovery
Direct-attached storage (DAS), deduplication appliances, and hardened Linux repositories are Veeam’s backup storage options. This is where Veeam stores backup data.
Veeam customers are looking to replace their existing on-premises storage.
Because these legacy storage options:
- They are not completely immutable (data can be deleted).
- Management is complex.
- It can be a security risk.
- Requires high maintenance and expensive staff.
So Veeam users are looking for secure, simple, ransomware-proof, and budget-friendly storage.
The Most Secure, Pre-Hardened Storage Solution for Veeam
OOTBI was built on zero trust principles and incorporates Veeam’s recommended zero trust data resilience architecture. This means we’re so vigilant that we assume anyone, any device, or any service trying to access company resources is compromised and shouldn’t be trusted.
OOTBI uses S3 object locks to enable true immutability, and it runs its storage software on a hardened Linux operating system with a zero-access root policy, meaning it has truly zero access. There’s no governance mode where administrators or bad actors with administrator credentials can delete immutable backups, and as a secure device, it can be isolated from Veeam backup and replication servers for really good ransomware resilience.
