“The ability to store massive amounts of unstructured data has led to object storage becoming the de facto choice for cloud storage, but current on-premises solutions aren’t optimized for backup and recovery. This makes data management options unnecessarily complex and expensive, requiring more resources and overhead”

“The ability to store massive amounts of unstructured data has led to object storage becoming the de facto choice for cloud storage, but current on-premises solutions aren’t optimized for backup and recovery. This makes data management options unnecessarily complex and expensive, requiring more resources and overhead,” said David Bennett, CEO at Object First. “We have a vision for a backup appliance that ransomware proofs Veeam backups with out-of-the-box immutability without sacrificing performance and simplicity to meet budget constraints.”

Even with the best possible protection and detection measures in place, ransomware attacks are expected to increase. Modern organizations know that it is only a matter of time before they are targeted with an incident. Proper backup and recovery strategies leverage out-of-the-box immutable storage that does not need in-house security expertise.

“Businesses are falling victim to ransomware at an alarming rate, and their backups are increasingly becoming targeted. Object First helps combat this by offering a backup storage appliance that has immutability enabled via object lock by default,” said Johnny Yu, Research Manager at IDC. “Additionally, Object First’s appliance uses object storage that is tailor-made for the backup use case and is deeply integrated with Veeam backup software, which helps ensure a high level of optimization between the backup software and the backup target.”
