Unlocking Media Collaboration: How To Boost Productivity on Hybrid Cloud Storage

In the 2023 Data Protection Trends Report from Veeam, 85% of organizations had at least one ransomware attack in 2022, and only 55% of the affected data was recoverable. Based on these trends, it is not if a threat will occur, but when. 

So, as you design your data protection strategy, how do you plan to protect your business data from imminent threats? When building a castle, you add in layers of protection to keep threats out, such as outer walls and other defensive structures. What layers of protection do you have in your current defense strategy, and what things should you consider adding?

Together, Backblaze and Veeam will help you design your data protection armor to protect and recover from natural disasters, ransomware attacks, and data loss.

Learn how you can:
-Protect your business-critical backups from ransomware attacks. 
-Recover your data after a cybersecurity breach or disaster. 
-Implement a robust backup strategy for data protection to arm your business on-prem, in the cloud, or both.
