As ransomware attacks become more frequent and disruptive, organizations are struggling to ensure their backup data will be there when they need it most. Object First-sponsored Omdia research found that 83% of organizations experienced a successful ransomware attack in the past two years, yet only 39% recovered at least 75% of their data. While 93% of technology leaders consider absolutely immutable backup storage critical to ransomware protection, only 16% say their current environment meets that standard, leaving a significant gap between recovery readiness and reality.

Object First delivers secure, simple, and powerful backup storage for Veeam software environments that’s absolutely immutable, which means that no one—neither cybercriminals nor insiders—can alter the firmware, operating system, storage layer, or backup data. Third-party tested and verified to be secure, Object First ransomware-proofs organizations and makes them simply resilient to cyberthreats.

As cyberthreats continue to evolve, we remain committed to making ransomware resilience both effective and accessible, helping organizations recover from attacks without unnecessary complexity.”
