Most modern data protection solutions provide some type of automated discovery, which can leverage your directory services, VM tagging and other methods to see that everything gets identified and subsequently protected.
Direct integration with native application and database tools, including VSS, RMAN and SAP Backint, properly quiesce or “freeze” apps so that no data is missed during the backup snapshot.
Products like Veeam Backup & Replication™ automate security to keep your backup data safe from cyberthreats. Native immutable backups and immutable backups stored in the cloud ensure that your data cannot be deleted, encrypted or altered in any way for the duration of its life cycle.
