Hot on the heels of Veeam and Microsoft’s five-year strategic partnership announcement and the release of Veeam Data Cloud, I have exciting news for you. Veeam Data Cloud Vault is now Generally Available (GA)! Read on to learn why and how Veeam gives you the power to be Radically Resilient.
The Need for Secure Backup Storage
The breadth and magnitude of security events like ransomware are at all time highs, with bad actors continuously evolving their strategies to bring even the most sophisticatedly secure organizations to their knees. In fact, 93% of attacks explicitly target backups to inhibit a clean, successful recovery of data. Implementing a Zero Trust storage strategy is critical to avert cyber disasters, but doing so isn’t necessarily easy…
Cloud Storage to the Rescue?
Cloud storage – AKA Storage as a Service (STaaS) – has long been a go-to backup repository for countless organizations. On-demand availability, infinite scalability, and dozens of native security services make STaaS an appealing option to safeguard backups. Yet, enterprise and SMB organizations alike struggle with key cloud challenges, including cost management/bill shock, cloud security, and lack of resources/expertise topping their list.
Like all things worthwhile in life, it’s often easier said than done, but does it have to be that way…?
Introducing Veeam Data Cloud Vault – Secure Cloud Storage Made Easy
Today, Veeam delivers Veeam Data Cloud Vault (AKA Veeam Vault). A fully managed, secure cloud storage resource on Microsoft Azure.
Veeam Vault is purpose-built from the ground up to empower Veeam Data Platform users with the secure cloud storage they need for their backups while eliminating the headaches of managing infrastructure and unpredictable cloud cost models. Whether you want to directly write Veeam Data Platform backups to Veeam Vault or complement on-premises storage as part of a 3-2-1-1-0 strategy with copying and/or tiering, Veeam Vault has you covered!
Why Veeam Vault? Security
Veeam Vault is designed, built, and managed by Veeam’s Azure experts, so we take on the hard work of architecting Zero Trust cloud storage.
- Logically air-gapped offsite, away from your production environment and securely access controlled.
- Always Immutable, placing your data in a write-once read-many (WORM) state to stop bad actors encrypting, deleting or modifying.
- Encrypted in-flight and at-rest using AES 256-bit algorithms in Veeam Data Platform, and only you hold the cryptographic keys.
Why Veeam Vault? Ease
