We are excited to announce the release of Kasten K10 version 6.0, the latest and most advanced version of our industry-leading platform that provides enterprise-grade Kubernetes data protection and application mobility. This release helps customers scale their cloud native data protection efficiently. Kubernetes deployments are growing at an unprecedented rate. Gartner predicts that by 2027, more than 90% of global organizations will be running containerized applications in production. However, today’s market conditions are scarred with financial uncertainty and a shortage of cloud native skills. Therefore, you must ensure operational efficiencies are in place to unleash the full potential of your cloud native environments while protecting your data. Additionally, security remains an imperative as organizations focus on keeping their businesses running. With this release, we also continue to innovate in this growing ecosystem, so that you can take advantage of the best-of-breed inn

Veeam is proud to release the findings of yet another independent research project, the 2023 Ransomware Trends Report. What’s almost as bad as going through a cyberattack is talking about it to others, so Veeam contracted with a research firm to conduct blind interviews and surveys of 1,200 organizations who suffered one or more attacks in 2022. A key aspect of the project was to survey four different personas involved in aspects of cyber-prevention or attack-remediation, including:
CISO or another responsible IT executive
Security professionals
IT operations
Backup administrators
According to the 2023 Data Protection Trends Report, 85% of organizations suffered at least one cyberattack in 2022, which is unfortunately up from 76% in 2021. As such, and to ensure that Veeam continues to develop industry-leading solutions that enable cyber-resiliency, Veeam contracted a global research firm to survey organizations of all sizes across 14 countries around the world.
The 2023 Ransomware Trends Report provides insights into:
Organizational alignment between cyber and backup teams — and their executive leadership.
The contents of most risk management roadmaps and incident response playbooks.
How were ransoms paid, and what is changing in cyber-insurance?
How many organizations, even if they had policies not to, were able to recover?
How pervasive were the attacks? How much data were organizations able to recover?
Were criminals able to affect backup repositories?
How were organizations able to avoid re-infecting their environments during recovery?
The first look at data from the 2023 Ransomware Trends Report was presented at VeeamON 2023, the community event for data recovery experts, in May 2023. Over the next several weeks, we’ll be looking at the topics below, unpacking research results and discussing how these findings are affecting cyber-resiliency strategies for 2023 and beyond.
Be sure to check out our May 29 LinkedIn Live session, where we will kick off this series. Stay tuned throughout the blog series, as additional blog posts and corresponding livestream sessions will address:
The severity of these attacks (their frequency, pervasiveness and recoverability).
How did organizations pay the ransom? Where does cyber-insurance apply?
How often were criminals able to impact backup repositories to force payment?
What are organizations’ recovery strategies moving forward, and where do they intend to recover from in the event of another cyberattack or disaster?
How do you ensure you are not re-infecting your environment during recovery?
If you have questions about this, or any of Veeam’s many other research projects, feel free to contact us at StrategicResearch@veeam.com.
About the 2023 Ransomware Trends Report: The 2023 Ransomware Trends Report is the latest and largest research report based on unbiased cyber victims in the history of backup and availability, as surveyed by an independent research firm with 1,200 responses from 14 countries that summarizes nearly 3,000 cyberattacks. Download the full 2023 Ransomware Trends Report to get access to all the lessons learned from other CISOs, SecPros, IT Ops and backup admins.

Before Veeam Backup & Replication v11, the product used SQL Server to create and store its configuration database. It has always been possible to use SQL Server Express to store a Veeam Backup & Replication, however, this version of SQL Server had some critical limitations. In the 2022 version of SQL Server Express, the most relevant limitations were: Use of one socket or four cores Use of only 1.4GB per instance 10GB limit for databases In an environment of 500 machines or fewer, these limitations may not have an impact, but if you have a large backup environment, you had to migrate to one of the paid SQL Server versions to avoid these limitations. You can check the limits for each version of SQL Server 2022 by clicking this link . For V12 and with scalability, performance and licensing cost in mind, Veeam introduced the possibility of using PostgreSQL as a configuration database. PostgreSQL is a relational database management system that’s been used for over 35 years
Cloud deployments are continuing to gain massive popularity, accelerated by the desire to modernize, evolving telework trends, and cost concerns. While not an exhaustive list of reasons, cloud platforms are here to stay. Eighty-one percent of surveyed organizations leveraged multi-cloud strategies last year. Additionally, Flexera’s 2020 State of the Cloud Survey found that 93% of respondents plan to implement multi-cloud. That said, what’s all the buzz about? We’ll dive into the ins and outs of multi-cloud, how you can implement it, and its inherent benefits. What is multi-cloud infrastructure? Companies, and especially larger enterprises, quickly find that their workflows require more than a one-size-fits-all tooling approach. Settling for one vendor’s product, while a unified strategy, can prevent teams from accomplishing important tasks efficiently. Therefore, multi-cloud involves using solutions from at least two cloud vendors simultaneously. Research from three years ago, howe
After selecting the right hardware for the Veeam Backup & Replication Hardened Repository and installing the Ubuntu Linux operating system, the next step is secure the operating system according to the DISA STIG (Defense Information Systems Agency Security Technical Implementation Guides) guidelines. This blog post describes the hardening process for Ubuntu 20.04 free edition. For Ubuntu Pro users, there is an easier way . To keep it as simple as possible, Veeam provides a script that automates the setting of security options. The requirement for the script to work is such that Ubuntu is set up as described in the installing the Ubuntu Linux blog post. Prerequisites Before starting the hardening process, let’s recap the current state and adjust settings if needed. Hardware monitoring is enabled in the out-of-band management of the Hardened Repository server. Vendor-specific hardware monitoring tools are not covered in this blog post Minimal Ubuntu installation on an UEFI
