Elastio, a leader in ransomware recovery assurance, has officially joined the Veeam Infused Program as a security partner. This collaboration enhances backup security by integrating Elastio’s advanced ransomware detection with Veeam’s robust backup solutions.
Reinforcing Backup Security with Continuous Ransomware Detection
As cyber threats evolve, traditional security measures often fall short in detecting ransomware before it spreads. The Elastio Ransomware Recovery Assurance Platform (Elastio Platform) bridges this gap by offering continuous backup validation, ensuring that only clean data is restored.
By seamlessly integrating with Veeam Data Platform, Elastio provides an agentless inspection of backups as soon as they are created. This proactive approach enables businesses to detect and mitigate ransomware threats before they escalate.
How Elastio Platform Strengthens Data Resilience
Unlike traditional verification methods that only check for threats at the recovery stage, Elastio continuously scans backups, identifying hidden ransomware before it can cause damage. This technology serves as an early warning system, complementing other security solutions like endpoint detection and response (EDR) or extended detection and response (XDR).
Leveraging advanced machine learning (ML), Elastio detects even the most sophisticated malware, including zero-day ransomware, without disrupting business operations or system performance.
Key Benefits of the Elastio-Veeam Partnership
- Continuous Protection: Policy-based scanning automatically inspects new backups on a predefined schedule.
- Backup Integrity Assurance: Ensures all backups are validated and free from ransomware.
- Early Threat Visibility: Provides insights into hidden ransomware that may bypass other security layers.
- Seamless Integration: Works without agents, maintaining system performance and preventing tampering risks.
- Trusted Recovery: Ensures recovery to a clean backup, free from hidden threats.
Industry Experts Weigh In
“As ransomware attacks continue to advance, it’s crucial for organizations to maintain the integrity of their backups,” said Najaf Husain, CEO at Elastio. “Through our partnership with Veeam, we empower businesses with a new level of resilience, allowing them to detect threats as they emerge rather than at the point of recovery.”
Derrick Woolford, Director of IT at AI Engineers, also praised the collaboration: “With Veeam and Elastio, I get the best of both worlds—robust backup performance combined with advanced ransomware detection. Elastio fills a critical gap, ensuring I can recover data quickly and safely.”
Strengthening Cybersecurity in an Evolving Threat Landscape
With ransomware attacks growing more sophisticated, businesses require proactive security strategies to protect their critical data. The integration between Elastio Platform and Veeam Data Platform provides companies with greater confidence in their backup security, ensuring that their data remains clean, intact, and ready for recovery.
As organizations continue to invest in AI-driven cybersecurity measures, partnerships like this will play a crucial role in shaping the future of data protection and ransomware resilience.
