As we approach the one year anniversary of two prominent ransomware group collapses (Lockbit and BlackCat/ALPHV), we find the ransomware ecosystem to be as fractured and uncertain as it did in the months following these events. The Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS) model remains irreversibly tarnished after the groups that pioneered this framework were exposed as being fraught with infighting, deception, lost profits, and compromised anonymity for their affiliates. Joint law enforcement actions over the last year have systematically impaired the resources ransomware actors depend on to operate. In the case of domestic threats, law enforcement efforts have even put a number of bad actors behind bars. While certain groups persist and new names continue to trickle in and out of the ransom-sphere, ... Read more

In Veeam Availability Suite 9.5 Update 4, we released a feature called Veeam Intelligent Diagnostics. In Veeam Availability Suite v10, we enhanced VID by adding the ability to find potential issues with proxies and backup repositories in addition to Veeam Backup & Replication servers. Let’s take a look at how VID reduces risk in your Veeam environment and keeps it always ready to protect or restore your data. Read more

Kubernetes is the industry standard for orchestrating containerized applications, but running it successfully in production requires more than just deployment skills. You need security, scalability, and data protection built into every layer of your environment. Read more

Government agencies and critical infrastructure companies have long used machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) technology to automate sensor data collection (SCADA/IoT), complete repetitive tasks, and for predictive analytics — all of which can enhance operational efficiency.

The cloud certainly doesn’t come without its fair share of challenges, and one of those challenges can be determining what is your responsibility and that of AWS. Read more

Hybrid cloud infrastructure offers a more balanced approach to computing resources, allowing companies to use a combination of  their data center(s) and one or more public (shared) clouds. Read more

SIEM integration involves consolidating a variety of cybersecurity tools, including firewalls, intrusion detection systems, antivirus solutions, IAM (Identity and Access Management), Endpoint security, and Cloud security, into a unified platform. This modernization encompasses a broader range of security measures, moving beyond the older solutions. Read more

Kubernetes adoption is accelerating as businesses become familiar with its many benefits. The platform offers portability and scalability, cost efficiency and productivity gains, which is why more than 5.6 billion developers use it today. Unfortunately, cyber-attacks and the potential for downtime are very real risks for cloud native environments, so backup and disaster recovery (DR) are critical components of any Kubernetes environment. This is especially true as the number of stateful applications such as databases are being deployed in Kubernetes.  Read more

It’s time for a new Veeam Data Platform release! We could not be more excited to share how we can help you achieve the radical resilience that only comes from having complete confidence in your cyberthreat protection, response, and recovery. Read more

The adoption of cloud-native development practices, particularly with Kubernetes, is rapidly accelerating as companies shift from last-gen tech to the far more reliable, scalable and portable environment that the cloud provides. Yet despite offering numerous advantages over on-premises systems, moving to the cloud can sometimes be a double-edged sword. Read more
