The growth of the cloud backup industry, over the last decade has been dramatic. The market has witnessed the rise and fall of many startups and stabilization of others. Interestingly, the companies that have gained a strong foothold in the industry are not all similar. There is a subtle distinction in the nature and types of services they offer.

Yet others, may license the software from enablers with or without re-branding options and service the cloud backup service needs of their clients.

Five distinct categories can be identified as under (click on links for details):
1/ Pure Enabler
2/ Enabler & Service Provider – Channel or Direct

LAWRENCE, Kan. – June 01, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Cobalt Iron Inc., a leading provider of SaaS-based enterprise data protection, today announced the launch of Compass NAS Protector, a new set of features in its Cobalt Iron Compass® enterprise SaaS backup platform. Intended to aid enterprise NAS and backup administrators, Compass NAS Protector speeds up backups, simplifies management of NAS data, and improves and consolidates backup operations.

Backup and recovery of network-attached storage (NAS) systems are often-neglected areas of IT operations. In addition, while NAS usage is prevalent and is projected to keep growing, there have been few improvements in the past decade or two in the techniques for protecting and restoring NAS data.

The most commonly used approaches for NAS data protection are file-level backup, NAS replication, and Network Data Management Protocol (NDMP) backup. These techniques have glaring disadvantages. Traditional file-level backup gets bogged down while scanning and protecting very large NAS environments. NAS replication and NDMP techniques limit recovery flexibility, lose opportunities for policy-based data management, add one-off operational complexities, and tend to increase costs.

The new Compass NAS Protector provides a competitive advantage over aging NAS protection techniques in use today. It allows a new, optimized approach to protecting NAS data that:

  • Accelerates NAS file identification and NAS data backups.
  • Enables recovery flexibility, such as restoring to different device types and locations.
  • Provides policy-based management of NAS data at the file/object level.
  • Simplifies NAS backup operations and consolidates them with the rest of enterprise data protection.
  • Provides a single data protection solution for traditional NAS filers and cloud NAS services.
  • Employs efficient data-reduction techniques on NAS data, such as incremental forever backups, deduplication, and compression.

Compass NAS Protector is an innovative technology for identifying new, changed, and deleted NAS files compared with the Compass inventory. Proprietary scanning and identification processes optimize parallelism in NAS share/export scanning. Enhanced data-movement processing enables high-speed, parallel backup and archiving. And the technology ensures NAS device independence to consistently protect physical, virtual, and cloud NAS share/export resources.

Compass NAS Protector is automatically available to existing and new Compass users at no additional cost.

“Protection of NAS data is typically inefficient and cumbersome, especially for very large NAS systems,” said Rob Marett, chief technology officer at Cobalt Iron. “The Compass NAS Protector introduces proprietary NAS scanning and identification processes that optimize NAS data protection — something you won’t find with other backup products. Optimizing NAS backups is an example of Cobalt Iron’s strategy to improve every aspect of the backup and restore experience.”

About Cobalt Iron
Cobalt Iron was founded in 2013 to bring about fundamental changes in the world’s approach to secure data protection, and today the company’s Compass® is the world’s leading SaaS-based enterprise data protection system.

  • Partner-Friendly Program Eases Collaboration and Integration of S3-Compatible Enterprise-Grade Cloud Solutions Built on Web3 Technology
  • Award-Winning Solutions Provider Comet Backup Is Inaugural Partner, Joined by Acronis

HAMBURG, Germany – June 01, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Impossible Cloud, the revolutionary cloud platform that offers decentralized, multi-service cloud solutions, today announced the launch of its Partner Program designed to help partners and resellers seamlessly implement, demo and integrate Impossible Cloud’s efficient, performance-driven solutions into enterprise environments.

The company also announced a number of award-winning global backup solutions providers as alliance partners. These include Comet Backup, an inaugural partner, as well as Acronis. Clients will now be able to use these companies’ fast, secure backup software seamlessly in conjunction with Impossible Cloud’s S3-compatible storage to safeguard data, ensure business continuity and prepare for emergencies.

The program has been developed to support various prospective channel partners – including value-added resellers (VARs), systems integrators (SIs), managed service providers (MSPs) and independent software vendors (ISVs) – in their efforts to bring more innovative and profitable solutions to customers leveraging the emerging B2B benefits of web3. These benefits include increased capacity, reduced costs, decreased complexity and improved security compared to traditional cloud providers. The solution also offers a flexible, consumption-based infrastructure enabling MSPs to adjust the storage resources they provide their clients in a manner that is secure, efficient, measurable and reliable.

“VARs and SIs want to increase their average revenue per sale with either higher volume or higher margin,” said Lennart Rother, Director of Growth, Impossible Cloud. “They’re looking for products with a competitive advantage that will provide new routes to market and enable them to offer advantageous pricing without sacrificing quality. Acronis and Comet Backup are ideal launch partners for the partner program; their services are trusted around the globe, are accessible in multiple languages, and – like Impossible Cloud – offer adjustable solutions that scale with growth.”

The new Partner Portal fosters a collaborative space that efficiently connects Impossible Cloud Technology Partners and Channel partners within a comprehensive environment encompassing product details, educational materials, marketing assets and technical assistance. The portal’s Control Console provides a user-friendly interface and dashboards designed to streamline the process and to ease enrollment of new or trial accounts.

“Growing data intensity is feeding the growth and market power of a handful of dominant cloud storage providers,” added Josh Flores, General Manager, Comet Backup. “Impossible Cloud provides an ideal solution for resellers and other partners looking to offer an enterprise-grade alternative with a considerable price advantage. This relationship opens up strong opportunities for us and our clients.”

Impossible Cloud recently announced the general availability of its enterprise-grade, native cloud storage solution delivering all the capabilities of traditional cloud storage along with the key benefits of web3 technology. It is the first decentralized, enterprise-grade cloud for fast, outage-proof, Kubernetes-friendly, AWS S3-compatible object storage, designed to enable switching from web2 via a single line of code and to deliver cost savings of up to 75%. Impossible Cloud’s services can be procured using fiat currencies, eliminating a critical roadblock that has slowed B2B adoption of web3 technologies.

In March the company announced a €7 million seed round co-led by HV Capital and 1kx, joined by Protocol Labs, TS Ventures, and very early Ventures.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. – May 31, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Alcion, a modern data management startup, today announced $8M in seed funding from prominent angel investors, and the public preview of its AI-driven Backup-as-a-Service (BaaS) platform. Developed with a product-led and community-driven focus, Alcion provides Microsoft 365 admins with an easy-to-use, intelligent, and secure SaaS platform to protect against ransomware, malware, corruption, and accidental data loss.

Alcion was founded by Niraj Tolia and Vaibhav Kamra, two serial entrepreneurs with deep domain expertise in data protection. They previously founded Kasten, the leading and award-winning Kubernetes backup company that was acquired by Veeam in 2020.

“We are thrilled to announce our market entry with a fully-managed AI-driven backup service for Microsoft 365 users,” said Niraj Tolia, CEO and co-founder. “This significant round of funding allows us to exit stealth mode, take our modern BaaS product to market, expand our community, and accelerate product development.”

Alcion provides comprehensive data protection using a modern and security-focused architecture that includes predictive Recovery Point Objective (RPO) reduction, integrated threat detection, and response algorithms. The high-value and increasing amounts of business-critical data stored in Microsoft 365 makes it a prime target for both internal and external malicious actors, including new classes of ransomware. While Microsoft ensures the reliability and availability of Microsoft 365 infrastructure, it does not protect against cases in which cyberattacks or accidents lead to data loss. Traditional Microsoft 365 backup solutions are often totally unaware of ongoing security threats, are limited to reactive action, and haven’t been designed with today’s threat environments in mind. Alcion directly addresses these challenges through its threat detection, automated responses, intelligent backup scheduling and default delete protection offerings.

“When it came to finding a backup solution for our Microsoft 365 data, ease of use was a top requirement,” said Bryan Whiting, CTO, Milestone Financial Engineering. “In fact, the complexity of setup and time investment required by other Microsoft 365 backup products had been a barrier to adoption at Milestone Financial Engineers. Alcion’s simplicity made setup a breeze and, without ever reading the documentation or undergoing training, we went from setup to backing up all our data in under 10 minutes!”

“Preventing downtime due to malicious intent has been top-of-mind for us,” said Ryan Elliot, VP of Client Solutions at K?STA I.T. “Alcion has allowed us to protect our critical business data from both potential internal threats and external cyber threats such as malware and ransomware.”

Leveraging community-driven product development and based on Corso, Alcion’s popular open-source project for Microsoft 365 backup, Alcion’s BaaS platform provides easy-to-use comprehensive backup and restore workflows, enabling reliable and fault-tolerant backups. Additionally, the Alcion BaaS solution supports XDR integration (e.g., 365 Defender) for proactive backups, includes ransomware detection, supports intelligent backup scheduling to reduce RPO, and more.

Alcion’s seed round was driven by several prominent angels including Lip-Bu Tan, Chairman of Walden International and Intel Board Member, Abhinav Asthana, CEO and founder of Postman, Debanjan Saha, CEO of DataRobot, and Amarjit Gill, serial entrepreneur and investor at Nepenthe Capital.

“Niraj and Vaibhav have a finger on the pulse of the solutions that modern businesses need to be more efficient and productive,” said Tan. “Alcion’s AI-driven BaaS platform serves a growing market need for intelligent data management, recovery, and threat detection that will surely come to be an industry standard.”

“Data protection is more critical than ever and, given my experience in building secure scalable platforms that are also easy to adopt, the companies that are successful in this space will be those that can effectively balance security with accessibility,” said Asthana. “I’m excited to invest in Alcion because of their innovative work at the intersection of data and security. With a highly-talented team focused on ease-of-use and security, I am confident they will make a significant impact on the field of data protection.”

Outlook

The U.S. dollar has continued to strengthen versus the currencies in which Box transacts international business following the prior earnings announcement on March 1, 2023, resulting in a larger than expected FX headwind for Q2 and the full year of FY24. As a reminder, approximately one third of Box’s revenue is generated outside of the US, primarily in Japanese Yen. The following guidance includes the expected impact of FX headwinds, assuming present foreign currency exchange rates.

Q2 FY24 Guidance

  • Revenue is expected to be in the range of $260 million to $262 million, up 7% year-over-year at the high-end of the range, or 11% growth on a constant currency basis.
  • GAAP operating margin is expected to be approximately 3%, and non-GAAP operating margin is expected to be approximately 24%.
  • GAAP net income per share attributable to common stockholders is expected to be in the range of $0.01 to $0.02. GAAP EPS guidance includes an expected negative impact of $0.05 from unfavorable exchange rates.
  • Non-GAAP diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders is expected to be in the range of $0.34 to $0.35. Non-GAAP EPS guidance includes an expected negative impact of $0.05 from unfavorable exchange rates.
  • Weighted-average diluted shares outstanding are expected to be approximately 150 million.

Full Year FY24 Guidance

  • Revenue is expected to be in the range of $1.045 billion to $1.055 billion, up 6% year-over-year at the high-end of the range, or 10% growth on a constant currency basis.
  • GAAP operating margin is expected to be approximately 5%, and non-GAAP operating margin is expected to be 25.5%.
  • GAAP net income per share attributable to common stockholders is expected to be in the range of $0.17 to $0.23. FY24 GAAP EPS guidance includes an expected negative impact of $0.20 from unfavorable exchange rates.
  • Non-GAAP diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders is expected to be in the range of $1.44 to $1.50. This represents an increase from Box’s previous guidance provided on March 1, 2023, which was $1.42 to $1.48. FY24 non-GAAP EPS guidance includes an expected negative impact of $0.20 from unfavorable exchange rates.
  • Weighted-average diluted shares outstanding are expected to be approximately 151 million.

All forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures contained in this section titled “Outlook” exclude estimates for stock-based compensation expense, intangible assets amortization, and as applicable, other special items.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Key Metrics

To supplement Box’s consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, Box provides investors with certain non-GAAP financial measures and other key metrics, including non-GAAP gross profit (loss), non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, non-GAAP net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders, billings, remaining performance obligations, non-GAAP free cash flow and free cash flow margin. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics, please see the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures and certain key metrics to their nearest comparable GAAP financial measures at the end of this press release.

Box uses these non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics for financial and operational decision-making (including for purposes of determining variable compensation of members of management and other employees) and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Box’s management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics provide meaningful supplemental information regarding Box’s performance by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of Box’s recurring core business operating results. Box believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics in assessing Box’s performance and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to Box’s historical performance as well as comparisons to Box’s competitors’ operating results. Box believes these non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics are useful to investors both because they (1) allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and (2) are used by Box’s institutional investors and the analyst community to help them analyze the health of Box’s business.

A limitation of non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics is that they do not have uniform definitions. Further, Box’s definitions will likely differ from the definitions used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore comparability may be limited. Thus, Box’s non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or in isolation from, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, in the case of stock-based compensation expense, if Box did not pay a portion of compensation in the form of stock-based compensation expense, the cash salary expense included in cost of revenue and operating expenses would be higher, which would affect Box’s cash position. The accompanying tables have more details on the reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures and certain key metrics to their nearest comparable GAAP financial measures.

Non-GAAP gross profit (loss) and non-GAAP gross margin. Box defines non-GAAP gross profit (loss) as GAAP gross profit (loss) excluding expenses related to stock-based compensation (“SBC”) included in cost of revenue and intangible assets amortization. Non-GAAP gross margin is defined as non-GAAP gross profit (loss) divided by revenue. Although SBC is an important aspect of the compensation of Box’s employees and executives, determining the fair value of certain of the stock-based instruments Box utilizes involves a high degree of judgment and estimation and the expense recorded may bear little resemblance to the actual value realized upon the vesting or future exercise of the related stock-based awards. Management believes it is useful to exclude SBC in order to better understand the long-term performance of Box’s core business and to facilitate comparison of Box’s results to those of peer companies. Management also views amortization of acquired intangible assets, such as the amortization of the cost associated with an acquired company’s developed technology and trade names, as items arising from pre-acquisition activities determined at the time of an acquisition. While these intangible assets are continually evaluated for impairment, amortization of the cost of purchased intangibles is a static expense that is not typically affected by operations during any particular period.

Non-GAAP operating income (loss) and non-GAAP operating margin. Box defines non-GAAP operating income (loss) as operating income (loss) excluding expenses related to SBC, intangible assets amortization, and as applicable, other special items. Non-GAAP operating margin is defined as non-GAAP operating income (loss) divided by revenue. Box excludes the following expenses as they are considered by management to be special items outside of Box’s core operating results: (1) fees related to shareholder activism, (2) expenses related to certain litigation, (3) expenses associated with restructuring activities, consisting primarily of severance and other personnel-related costs, and (4) expenses related to acquisitions, including transaction and discrete tax costs.

Non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders. Box defines non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders as GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders excluding expenses related to SBC, intangible assets amortization, amortization of debt issuance costs, undistributed earnings attributable to preferred stockholders, and as applicable, other special items as described in the preceding paragraph. Box defines non-GAAP net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders as non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average outstanding shares.

Billings. Billings reflect, in any particular period, (1) sales to new customers, plus (2) subscription renewals and (3) expansion within existing customers, and represent amounts invoiced for all products and professional services. Box calculates billings for a period by adding changes in deferred revenue and contract assets in that period to revenue. Box believes that billings help investors better understand sales activity for a particular period, which is not necessarily reflected in revenue as a result of the fact that Box recognizes subscription revenue ratably over the subscription term. Box considers billings a significant performance measure. Box monitors billings to manage the business, make planning decisions, evaluate performance and allocate resources. Box believes that billings offers valuable supplemental information regarding the performance of the business and helps investors better understand the sales volumes and performance of the business. Although Box considers billings to be a significant performance measure, Box does not consider it to be a non-GAAP financial measure because it is calculated using exclusively revenue, deferred revenue, and contract assets, all of which are financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Remaining performance obligations. Remaining performance obligations (“RPO”) represent, at a point in time, contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized. RPO consists of deferred revenue and backlog. Backlog is defined as non-cancellable contracts deemed certain to be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. Future invoicing is determined to be certain when we have an executed non-cancellable contract or a significant penalty that is due upon cancellation. While Box believes RPO is a leading indicator of revenue as it represents sales activity not yet recognized in revenue, it is not necessarily indicative of future revenue growth as it is influenced by several factors, including seasonality, contract renewal timing, average contract terms and foreign currency exchange rates. Box monitors RPO to manage the business and evaluate performance. Box considers RPO to be a significant performance measure. Box does not consider RPO to be a non-GAAP financial measure because it is calculated in accordance with GAAP, specifically under ASC Topic 606.

Non-GAAP free cash flow and free cash flow margin. Box defines non-GAAP free cash flow as cash flows from operating activities less purchases of property and equipment, principal payments of finance lease liabilities, capitalized internal-use software costs, and other items that did not or are not expected to require cash settlement and that management considers to be outside of Box’s core business. Free cash flow margin is calculated as non-GAAP free cash flow divided by revenue. Box specifically identifies adjusting items in the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures. Box considers non-GAAP free cash flow to be a profitability and liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by the business that can possibly be used for investing in Box’s business and strengthening its balance sheet, but it is not intended to represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. The presentation of non-GAAP free cash flow is also not meant to be considered in isolation or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity.

Cohesity Unveils Cohesity Turing — an Expanding Set of AI Capabilities that Powers Deep AI-Driven Insights for Customers Across Industries and Geographies

SAN JOSE, Calif. – May 23, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Cohesity, a leader in data security and management, announced today at its three-day Cohesity Catalyst virtual conference an expanded partnership with Google Cloud to help organizations unlock the power of generative AI and data. In addition, Cohesity unveiled Cohesity Turing, a unique, comprehensive, and rapidly evolving set of AI technologies that brings the power of AI to data security and management. The expanded partnership with Google Cloud, along with Cohesity Turing, will enable organizations to leverage their entire data estate through a single, secure workflow across on-premises, multicloud, and edge environments.

For years, Cohesity and Google Cloud have provided joint customers with a simple yet robust enterprise-grade solution for backup and recovery of applications. Building on other recent announcements, Cohesity is continuing to extend its AI-ready data security and management platform — Cohesity Data Cloud — to work closely and have deeper integrations with leading cloud services, including Vertex AI, Google Cloud’s fully managed ML (machine learning) platform designed to help companies to accelerate the deployment of ML and AI models.

The combination of Cohesity’s data security and management capabilities and Vertex AI will enable joint customers to gain new insights into the same data they’re already securing and managing on Cohesity’s platform. Through this integration, customers could, for instance, quickly search across exabytes of data to gain insights into data patterns, like finding anomalies in their data to detect threats, or find answers to very specific questions, or quickly recover data using contextual searches.

“Vertex AI is one of the best platforms for building, deploying, managing and scaling ML models – and we’re excited that Cohesity is joining our growing open ecosystem to help more customers get value from their data via AI,” said Thomas Kurian, CEO, Google Cloud. “Cohesity’s excellent data security and management capabilities, combined with Google Cloud’s powerful generative AI and analytics capabilities, will help customers get exceptional insights into their backup and archived data.”

“To apply generative AI transformatively, businesses need to be able to easily get rapid insights from their data utilizing cutting-edge and leading AI/ML models. We are excited to be leading the charge in generative AI in the data security and management industry, as we build out next-gen generative AI solutions for our category,” said Sanjay Poonen, CEO and president, Cohesity. “We also agree with Google that AI must be handled securely and responsibly. With our unique platform, Cohesity not only provides phenomenal search via our built-in indexing capabilities, but robust security protocols to help customers maintain control and privacy of their data at every turn.”

Creating Unprecedented Efficiency and Insights Via Cohesity Turing
To address the rapidly evolving needs customers have with AI and data, Cohesity is introducing Cohesity Turing, a collection of AI/ML capabilities and technologies that are integrated into its multicloud data platform and solutions. As new AI needs emerge, Cohesity will continue to advance the portfolio of technologies offered and powered by Cohesity Turing, while enabling customers to use AI responsibly and securely.

Through Cohesity Turing, organizations can and will be able to utilize the latest AI capabilities to drive more efficient operations, garner greater insight into security risks, and derive more value from data.

A sampling of AI/ML capabilities powered by Cohesity Turing include:

  • Ransomware anomaly detection: Uses advanced modeling and advanced data entropy detection to “see” anomalies in data ingested, which can provide early warnings of a hidden threat with data under protection.
  • Threat intelligence: Provides highly curated and managed threat feeds used in conjunction with machine learning models trained on millions of samples to accurately detect threats and keep organizations up-to-date automatically.
  • Data classification: Helps ensure that organizations can identify their most sensitive data and where that data is located.
  • Predictive capacity planning: Enables customers to meet current and future business SLAs with machine-driven recommendations, including a what-if simulator and forecasting capacity utilization based on previous capacity utilization.

In addition, in the near future, customers will be able to turn to Cohesity Turing to derive even more insights from their data via the Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) AI model workflows. Cohesity believes RAG technologies can help customers get deeper insights and discovery from data or quickly find content in petabytes of data. Cohesity has multiple patents pending in this area.

Advancing Technology that Was Tailor-Made for AI From Day One
Cohesity Data Cloud – built on a unique distributed file system for the multicloud -was designed for massive scale and to empower customers to easily manage and secure their data across on-premises, cloud, and edge environments. Customers can utilize this same modern platform for AI, deriving benefits from Large Language Models (LLM) and Natural Language Processing (NLP), while also maintaining control of the data.

Via this platform, customers will be able to:

  • Search for data simply and quickly using everyday language: Backup data from Cohesity is indexed and contains the specific metadata that makes utilizing that data in LLM possible. The LLM can draw upon rich Cohesity context to provide more informed, human-readable and actionable responses.
  • Maintain strict security protocols and manage AI responsibly: Through Cohesity’s comprehensive, built-in role-based access controls, only the right people have access to data based on privileges specified by the customer. Customers can also control what data can be accessed by these AI models.

“Cohesity’s data security and management solutions have long incorporated AI and ML capabilities, and with the introduction of Cohesity Turing, Cohesity is taking a unique approach to seamless integration of customer data with responsible AI and governance, ultimately helping organizations to build trust around integrating and leveraging AI with their data,” said Christophe Bertrand, Practice Director, Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG). “And while there is a lot of hype around AI, Cohesity is introducing a pragmatic approach to bring the power of AI to an expanded number of use cases.”

Integrations Between Security and Data Management Leaders Can Improve Detection, Protection, and Recovery for Thousands of Companies Globally

SAN JOSE, Calif. – May 23, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Cohesity, a leader in data security and management, today announced at Catalyst, the company’s three-day virtual summit, expansion and rapid innovation with the Data Security Alliance.

Cohesity added new members to the alliance including Netskope, ServiceNow, and Zscaler. The company delivered new integrations with CrowdStrike, ServiceNow, and announced an updated integration with Tenable. The alliance, announced in November 2022, also includes BigID, Cisco, CyberArk, Mandiant, Okta, Palo Alto Networks, PwC UK, Qualys, Securonix, and Splunk.

The Data Security Alliance offers a unique and comprehensive approach to security. Through this one-of-a-kind alliance, leading cyber security, data security and management, and services vendors partner to seamlessly bridge enterprise IT and security by sharing context and enabling new workflows. This collaboration can help customers detect threats and respond to attacks faster, improve remediation, and advance cyber resilience — all while utilizing their existing security and data management investments.

This type of alliance is in high demand by enterprises globally. In a soon-to-be-released global research study commissioned by Cohesity, with partners BigID and Tenable, 87% of the more than 3,000 IT and security respondents polled believe that in order to help win the war against ransomware, it is important that data security and management and cyber security companies team to provide complete and integrated anti-ransomware solutions.*

The following are new Data Security Alliance partners:

  • Netskope: Cohesity and Netskope will provide enhanced data protection to tackle the challenges of double-extortion ransomware attacks. Cohesity’s zero-trust protection of immutable backup data helps ensure data is available for recovery if production data is encrypted. When coupled with instant mass restore, organizations will be able to recover from ransomware attacks in hours versus days.Netskope’s Intelligent Security Service Edge (SSE) platform, with its Zero Trust Engine, provides AI-powered visibility and control of sensitive data across web, SaaS, and private apps. Enterprises can reduce the attack surface by applying zero-trust principles to unmanaged networks and protect all traffic through real-time data and threat protection. Through this integration, enterprises can thwart data exfiltration by ransomware attacks that can expose customer, employee, and partner data, as well as intellectual property, for extortion purposes.
  • ServiceNow: ServiceNow® Security Operations (SecOps) brings incident data from the Cohesity Data Cloud into a structured response engine that uses intelligent workflows, automation, and a deep connection with IT to prioritize and resolve threats based on the impact they pose to organizations.
  • Zscaler: Data protection is top of mind for customers. Cohesity integration with Zscaler provides customers with industry leading Zero Trust security in the world’s most deployed cloud data protection solution. Cohesity will classify backup data and share information about sensitive files with Zscaler. Zscaler’s data protection platform not only fortifies cloud-based communication channels but also incorporates functionalities such as automated data discovery powered by AI and machine learning (ML), as well as seamless deployment requiring no manual configuration. These capabilities enable precise enforcement of outbound traffic policies, aligning them effectively with customer data protection guidelines. Furthermore, the integrated workflow optimizes the allocation of security team resources while actively shaping user behavior pertaining to the handling of sensitive data.

“With the addition of new security partners Netskope, ServiceNow, and Zscaler and our growing portfolio of security integrations, we have one of the most robust data security ecosystems in the industry to help fight the threat of attacks,” said Sanjay Poonen, CEO and president, Cohesity. “Today’s increasingly sophisticated cyber threats cannot be solved by one vendor alone. It takes an integrated network of cyber security, data security and management, and services experts to thwart the persistence of bad actors. We’re excited to be fulfilling our vision via new and expanded integrations with our valued partners and look forward to working together to help enterprises win the war against cyber threats.”

The following are new or advanced integrations with Data Security Alliance members to increase the speed and efficiency of threat detection.

  • CrowdStrike: Integration with Cohesity provides closed-loop detection and response for attacks directly within the CrowdStrike Falcon platform. Customers obtain enriched visibility in their CrowdStrike Falcon LogScale dashboard – the platform’s modern observability and log management offering – with insights from Cohesity, allowing fast correlation, investigation, and response to incidents in one location.
  • ServiceNow: ServiceNow® Security Operations provides closed-loop detection and response for ransomware attacks via SOAR integration adding to the existing capability to create workflows through their IT service management (ITSM) solution. This allows teams to rapidly access and address threats based on the potential impact to the business.
  • Tenable: Cohesity is pleased to launch a new, re-architected integration with Tenable, that powers our marketplace app CyberScan. The updated Tenable integration provides improved scalability to meet the demands of growing workloads so that snapshots can be scanned rapidly and support demanding SLA and RTO requirements. The improved scalability also improves vulnerability scanning used proactively, as part of cyber resilience best practices.

“CrowdStrike’s modern, scalable observability and log management solution is an ideal complement to Cohesity’s exceptional data management capabilities. Together, we help customers rapidly advance cyber resilience within their organizations,” said Daniel Bernard, chief business officer at CrowdStrike. “With the increasing sophistication of cyberattacks, powerful integrations help defeat the bad guys and offer customers the most comprehensive and advanced approaches to protecting their people, organizations, and data.”

“We welcome the opportunity to innovate with Cohesity to help our customers strengthen their cyber resilience and contribute to the momentum of Cohesity’s Data Security Alliance,” said Ray Komar, vice president of technical alliances, Tenable. “We’re excited to support the newly re-architected integration of marketplace app CyberScan powered by Tenable, which provides greater scalability so large workloads can be scanned more efficiently and rapidly. Proactive, rapid vulnerability scanning is a critical part of cyber resilience best practices.”

“Improved collaboration between data management and security providers, and tighter integration of their respective services, is critical in meeting the threat of ever more sophisticated cyberattacks such as ransomware,” said Johnny Yu, research manager, Storage and Computing, IDC. “Cohesity has shown strong momentum in adding key security providers to its alliance and making more integrations available to customers to help defend against cybercrime.”

*April 2023 survey conducted by Censuswide, of more than 3,000 IT decision-makers and SecOps professionals (split nearly 50/50 between the two groups) from businesses in the United States, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Australia and Japan. Full report to be released by July 2023

The File Data Services Leader Raises Its Net Promoter Score to 88 and Receives a 99% Customer Satisfaction Score

BOSTON, MA – May 23, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Nasuni Corporation, a leading provider of file data services, today announced it has received the NorthFace ScoreBoard Service Award for the third year in a row and raised its Net Promoter Score to 88. This coveted recognition demonstrates Nasuni’s ongoing commitment to achieving excellence in customer support services by building long-term customer loyalty and continuously exceeding expectations.

“I’ve always been pleasantly surprised at the level of attention and professionalism from the Nasuni team,” said Michael Chan, IT Manager at GeoVerra, one of Canada’s largest geomatics firms providing land surveying, mapping, forestry, environmental, and geospatial solutions. “We’re very happy with Nasuni. I wish other companies were like them.”

Audited and awarded by the Customer Relationship Management Institute LLC (CRMI), Nasuni received a Net Promoter Score (NPS) of 88, a Transaction Survey ScoreBoard Index (SBI) rating of 4.8 for overall technical support, and a 99% Customer Satisfaction (CSAT) rating. According to Bain & Company, the creators of the NPS system, a score of 50 is excellent while a score of 80 or more is considered world-class.

CRMI created the NorthFace ScoreBoard Service Awards program in 2000 to recognize organizations that offer exemplary services to their customers, as well as to center their existence on a deep commitment to the principles of respect, employee empowerment, and trust in others. Presented annually, the program recognizes companies that achieved excellence in customer service during the calendar year, according to ratings from their own customers.

Delivering the highest levels of support during all stages of the customer life cycle — from cloud migration to production — is a core pillar for Nasuni. “Not only is Nasuni committed to providing the most capable, file services and data protection platform available, but also to ensuring that our customers remain extremely happy and supported after the sale,” said Jason DePardo, Vice President of Customer Success and Services at Nasuni. “Unlike legacy storage where customers are locked into a vendor for years, we need to earn the business every day or customers can discontinue the service. We are very proud of our team for the incredible value they deliver to our users. Receiving this award three years in a row is truly outstanding validation of what they do and how they do it.”

Opti9 Technologies has been selected by Wasabi Hot Cloud Storage as a Technical Alliance Partner to protect critical workloads with the most secure cloud storage and rapid recovery

GARDEN CITY, NY – May 23, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Opti9 Technologies, LLC. (Opti9), a trusted North American managed cloud services provider, announces its selection by Wasabi Technologies (Wasabi) as a Technical Alliance Partner (TAP) to offer integrated disaster recovery and artificial intelligence (AI) powered ransomware detection services. As result of this trusted partnership, Wasabi clients can now natively integrate a comprehensive disaster recovery and security monitoring that includes proactive protection of their data from ransomware attacks.

Opti9 has been a leading managed hybrid cloud solutions and security services provider for over two decades. As part of their growing list of innovative contributions to provide secure and reliable cloud environments, Opti9 has developed a disaster recovery solution for Wasabi clients called DR-Lite which allows Wasabi customers to recover workloads already backed up to Wasabi onto the Opti9 DR infrastructure without the need to make any changes. This cost-effective and Wasabi approved solution provides rapid recovery to any of Opti9’s global cloud regions located adjacent to Wasabi cloud storage, ensuring low-latency and faster restoration.

Additionally, Opti9 has also integrated Wasabi directly into its Observr platform. Observr integrates with a customer’s Veeam backup and replication servers and uses AI to detect suspicious activity which may indicate the presence of a malicious attacker or insider threat. This includes suspicious changes to retention settings, job definitions, encryption, immutability, data deletion, job modifications or deletion, and many other factors. In addition to automated notification and API integration with third-party security tools, Observr can also automatically air-gap offsite backup storage so that an attacker who has gained access to Veeam can no longer impose changes on it, read/restore backups, or delete it. In the next version of Observr, Opti9 and Wasabi will enhance Observr to support its air-gap capability natively within Wasabi. This will allow Observr to automatically air-gap a client’s Wasabi environment whenever potential threats are detected, further strengthening data security measures.

Observr’s air-gap capability now natively integrates with Wasabi and Observr can automatically air-gap Wasabi buckets from Veeam in response to detected threats.

“Backup and replication infrastructure has recently become a focus for attackers who know that eliminating an organization’s ability to recover from a ransomware attack increases their likelihood of being paid the ransom. Additionally, attackers are typically present within an environment for 60 days or more before initiating an attack, allowing them to delete and circumvent protection provided by immutability alone,” explained Sagi Brody, CTO of Opti9. “The Observr + Wasabi solution provides Veeam customers with maximum assurances to protect their recovery capabilities by combining Wasabi’s secure, immutable, and encrypted cloud storage with contextual threat detection and an isolated recovery environment. By continuously monitoring Veeam to ensure backup jobs, retention, encryption, and immutability settings have not been disabled or altered, it ensures customers can recover their data when needed. Additionally, Opti9’s DR-Lite provides an isolated compute environment, pre-configured and pre-connected to customer’s Wasabi storage buckets and ready to initiate a failover immediately if and when needed.”

Opti9’s Observr, as well as DR-Lite are available to any customers utilizing Veeam + Wasabi and can easily be enabled without making any changes at all to their Veeam or Wasabi environments. These solutions require no software agents, special VPN or network configurations and provide RTOs for threat detection and response times.

“Wasabi is the best cloud storage solution for backup and recovery with lightning-fast data backups and restores with immutable hot cloud storage that delivers users predictable pricing and performance,” said Clark Brown, Vice President of North America Channels at Wasabi. “Opti9’s disaster recovery solution and Observr ransomware detection service are two critical cloud security requirements we’re thrilled to offer Wasabi clients who need to ensure they are protected from malicious actors.”

New integrations with Veeam Data Platform and cloud native tools, combined with new features including intelligent policies, aim to scale Kubernetes data protection and expand ransomware detection for enterprises

Miami, FL – VeeamON 2023 — May 23, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Kasten by Veeam®, the market leader for Kubernetes backup and disaster recovery, today announced the release of its new Kasten K10 V6.0 Kubernetes data protection platform. The new release includes features that will help customers scale their cloud native data protection more efficiently, better protect their applications and data against ransomware attacks, and increase accessibility by adding new cloud native integrations.

Kubernetes was designed to enable greater productivity – helping enterprises scale automation to manage very large deployments found within containerized environments. Kubernetes has now garnered industry-standard status as cloud native architecture fuels widespread application modernization. Now, IT budgets are tightening, and the pressure to do more with less is growing. At the same time, security issues remain top of mind across all business segments, with 85% of all organizations suffering at least one cyber-attack in the past 12 months.

Kasten K10 V6.0 bridges the need for increased operational efficiency and business resiliency in cloud native environments. The solution introduces newly enhanced capabilities to perform backup and disaster recovery with intelligent policies, extend threat detection capabilities, and uphold freedom of choice in terms of selecting best-of-breed components of the underlying infrastructure.

“Enterprises deploying cloud native applications today face two principal challenges. They need to protect their critical assets against cyberattacks while scaling applications and underlying infrastructure in the most efficient manner,” said Gaurav Rishi, Vice President of Product and Partnerships at Kasten by Veeam. “Kasten K10 V6.0 addresses these issues head on, introducing intelligence and automation at all layers of the backup and recovery process with deep ecosystem integrations including Red Hat OpenShift for enterprise grade data protection. We also remove friction from the process by aligning with the tools and processes customers already use.”

New capabilities of Kasten K10 V6.0 include:

  • Enterprise-Grade Ransomware Protection: Kasten K10 V6.0 enables organizations to create proactive ransomware protection strategies by improving suspicious activity detection capabilities, providing immutable backups, and elevating their capability for instant recovery. The new release extends threat detection capabilities by logging all events into Kubernetes Audit natively. The Kubernetes Audit logs can then be analyzed holistically by intelligent threat detection solutions to look for and flag patterns of abnormal, suspicious activity. The ability to interface with AWS Secrets Manager to store/retrieve passcodes allows for more flexibility in implementing a hardened, secure disaster recovery (DR) workflow for K10 itself. Also, Kasten K10’s Kubernetes native policies can be integrated into Infrastructure as Code to provide “guardrails,” allowing for risk mitigation, operational consistency, and automation.
  • Scalability and Efficiency Improvements: A new application fingerprinting feature enables newly deployed stateful applications to be automatically mapped to appropriate blueprints to achieve proper data consistency. This helps to reduce risk, minimize complexity, nurture operational consistency, and enforce improved compliance, paving the way for scale. Kasten K10 V6.0 also offers an improved metadata transformation experience (as typically required when restoring or migrating applications across environments), a streamlined VM restore workflow for Red Hat OpenShift virtualization and multi-cluster license management, allowing for an improved and more efficient user experience.
  • Cloud Native Expansion: Kasten K10 continues to add the most up-to-date cloud native integrations that facilitate new workloads and storage types, hybrid deployments and increased security capabilities. Kasten K10 V6.0 now supports Kubernetes 1.26, Red Hat OpenShift 4.12 and a new built-in blueprint for Amazon RDS, allowing for broader reach and interoperability. The platform also added additional hybrid cloud support on GCP, cross-platform restore targets for VMware Tanzu environments, and new Cisco Hybrid Cloud CVD with Red Hat OpenShift and Kasten K10. Adding new storage options for NetApp ONTAP S3 and Dell-EMC ECS S3 allows for more freedom of choice and interoperability with storage targets.

“The increasingly intricate and sophisticated nature of Kubernetes clusters makes deploying new services and ensuring adequate data protection for them a daunting task,” said Danny Allan, CTO and Senior Vice President of Product Strategy at Veeam. “With Kasten K10 V6.0 integrated into the Veeam Data Platform, customers can reduce complexity in their Kubernetes deployments, allowing their cloud native environments to reach their full potential. At the same time, the new release helps them double down on data protection and security resilience at a time when they can’t afford to compromise on either factor.”

Kasten by Veeam continues to be the acknowledged leader in the Kubernetes data backup and recovery market, as recognized by many industry accolades. One recent example is the 2023 edition of GigaOm Radar for Kubernetes Data Protection, in which Kasten by Veeam is featured as both a Leader and Outperformer, the only vendor achieving such a distinction for three years in a row since the inception of the report. This explains the considerable and accelerating momentum Kasten by Veeam is enjoying in the marketplace, yielding near triple digit, year-over-year-growth in fiscal year 2022.

General availability of the new Kasten K10 V6.0 is expected in late Q2 and will be featured during both Red Hat Summit and VeeamON 2023, the community event for data recovery experts, taking place online May 22-24 and in person in Miami, Fla. Designed by and built for the backup and recovery professional, attendees will expand their skills, learn how to protect their businesses from ransomware, and share industry knowledge with exclusive content from Microsoft, AWS, Hewlett Packard Enterprise and more. Registration for the in-person event and the virtual option is now open.

Veeam unveils the results of its 2023 Ransomware Trends Report at VeeamON 2023, showing cyber insurance is becoming too expensive and 21% of organizations unable to recover their data after paying the ransom

MIAMI, Fla.- VeeamON — May 23, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Organizations of all sizes are increasingly falling victim to ransomware attacks and inadequately protecting against this rising cyberthreat. According to new data in the Veeam® 2023 Ransomware Trends Report, one in seven organizations will see almost all (>80%) data affected as a result of a ransomware attack – pointing to a significant gap in protection. Veeam Software, the leader in Data Protection and Ransomware Recovery, found that attackers almost always (93%+) target backups during cyber-attacks and are successful in debilitating their victims’ ability to recover in 75% of those events, reinforcing the criticality of immutability and air gapping to ensure backup repositories are protected.

The Veeam 2023 Ransomware Trends Report shares insights from 1,200 impacted organizations and nearly 3,000 cyber-attacks, making it one of the largest reports of its kind. The survey examines key takeaways from these incidents, their impact on IT environments and the steps taken, or needed, to implement data protection strategies that ensure business resiliency. This research report encompasses four different roles involved in cyber-preparedness and/or mitigation including, security professionals, CISOs or similar IT executives, IT Operations generalists, and backup administrators.

“The report shows that today it’s not about IF your organization will be the target of a cyber-attack, but how often. Although security and prevention remain important, it’s critical that every organization focuses on how rapidly they can recover by making their organization more resilient,” said Danny Allan, CTO at Veeam. “We need to focus on effective ransomware preparedness by focusing on the basics, including strong security measures and testing both original data and backups, ensuring survivability of the backup solutions, and ensuring alignment across the backup and cyber teams for a unified stance.”

Paying the ransom does not ensure recoverability
For the second year in a row, the majority (80%) of the organizations surveyed paid the ransom to end an attack and recover data – now up 4% compared to the year prior – despite 41% of organizations having a “Do-Not-Pay” policy on ransomware. Still, while 59% paid the ransom and were able to recover data, 21% paid the ransom yet still didn’t get their data back from the cyber criminals. Additionally, only 16% of organizations avoided paying ransom because they were able to recover from backups. Sadly, the global statistic of organizations able to recover data themselves without paying ransom is down from 19% in last year’s survey.

To avoid paying ransom, your backups must survive
Following a ransomware attack, IT leaders have two choices: pay the ransom or restore-from-backup. As far as recovery goes, the research reveals that in almost all (93%) cyber-events, criminals attempt to attack the backup repositories, resulting in 75% losing at least some of their backup repositories during the attack, and more than one-third (39%) of backup repositories being completely lost.

By attacking the backup solution, attackers remove the option of recovery and essentially force paying the ransom. While best practices – such as securing backup credentials, automating cyber detection scans of backups, and auto verifying that backups are restorable – are beneficial to protect against attacks, the key tactic is to ensure that the backup repositories cannot be deleted or corrupted. To do so, organizations must focus on immutability. The good news is that based on lessons learned from those who had been victims – 82% use immutable clouds, 64% use immutable disks, and only 2% of organizations do not have immutability in at least one tier of their backup solution.

Do not re-infect during recovery
When respondents were asked how they ensure that data is ‘clean’ during restoration, 44% of respondents complete some form of isolated-staging to re-scan data from backup repositories prior to reintroduction into the production environment. Unfortunately, that means that the majority (56%) of organizations run the risk of re-infecting the production environment by not having a means to ensure clean data during recovery. This is why it is important to thoroughly scan data during the recovery process.

Other key findings from the Veeam 2023 Ransomware Trends Report include:

  • Cyber-insurance is becoming too expensive: 21% of organizations stated that ransomware is now specifically excluded from their policies, and those with cyber insurance saw changes in their last policy renewals: 74% saw increased premiums, 43% saw increased deductibles, 10% saw coverage benefits reduced.
  • Incident response playbooks depend on backup: 87% of organizations have a risk management program that drives their security roadmap, yet only 35% believe their program is working well, while 52% are seeking to improve their situation, and 13% do not yet have an established program. Findings reveal the most common elements of the ‘playbook’ in preparation against a cyberattack are clean backup copies and recurring verification that the backups are recoverable.
  • Organizational alignment continues to suffer: While many organizations may deem ransomware to be a disaster and therefore include cyberattacks within their Business Continuity or Disaster Recovery (BC/DR) planning, 60% of organizations say they still need significant improvement or complete overhauls between their backup and cyber teams to be prepared for this scenario.

The full Veeam 2023 Ransomware Trends Report is available for download at https://www.veeam.com/ransomware-trends-report-2023, and as part of sessions at VeeamON 2023, the community event for data recovery experts, taking place online May 22-24 and in person in Miami, Fla. Designed by and built for the backup and recovery professional, attendees will expand their skills, learn how to protect their businesses from ransomware, and share industry knowledge with exclusive content from Microsoft, AWS, Hewlett Packard Enterprise and more. Registration for the in-person event and the virtual option is now open.

About the Report
Veeam commissioned independent market research company, Vanson Bourne, to conduct a survey of 1,200 unbiased IT leaders regarding the impact of ransomware within their environments, as well as their IT strategies and data protection initiatives moving forward. All survey respondents suffered at least one successful cyber-attack in 2022. Respondents represented organizations of all sizes from 14 different countries in APJ, EMEA and the Americas.

Appointment comes on the heels of Rubrik Zero Labs study on the extent of the global ransomware challenge

LONDON, UK – May 23, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Rubrik, the zero-trust data security company, has named Toby Keech as vice president for Ireland and the UK.

In this role, Keech will focus on expanding Rubrik’s data security leadership across the region, further developing the company’s sales strategy and go-to-market function.

Keech brings over two decades of technology and cybersecurity sales leadership experience to this role. He joins Rubrik from Zscaler, where he has spent the last four years leading UK&I and MEA business units. Before this, he held senior sales roles at a number of technology businesses, supporting these organisations through acquisitions by the likes of NetApp and HP.

His appointment comes on the heels of a new study by Rubrik Zero Labs which highlighted the extent of the global ransomware challenge, with nearly three-quarters (72%) of organisations reporting paying ransom, while only 16% recovered all data after paying up. Keech will build on the company’s recent successes, having announced it has surpassed 5000 global customers and $500 million in software subscription annual recurring revenue (ARR).

“Ransomware continues to threaten the UK&I economy. Attack surfaces are expanding and organisations are sitting on a growing ocean of data that needs to be secured,” said Keech. “There’s a real demand and need for Rubrik’s industry-leading technology. Being a part of Rubrik’s prominent leadership team at this time was an opportunity I could not turn down. I’m excited to join an already fantastic team and continue to support our UK&I customer base to secure their data.”

“A typical organisation has nearly 25 million sensitive data records. And, if you consider the average growth of data in 2022, that will increase by at least 25% before this year’s out. That data is now constantly under attack and IT and security leaders have to be right every time, whereas cybercriminals need only hit the jackpot once. That’s why it’s so important to have experienced industry figures within our leadership team to continue tackling this issue for our customers, said Dean Yates, VP Western and Southern Europe, Rubrik.

“We are thrilled to have Toby join us at such a pivotal time for the UK&I business, bringing his wealth of security leadership experience to the Rubrik family.”

About Rubrik
Rubrik is on a mission to secure the world’s data. With Zero Trust Data Security™, we help organizations achieve business resilience against cyberattacks, malicious insiders, and operational disruptions. Rubrik Security Cloud, powered by machine learning, secures data across enterprise, cloud, and SaaS applications.

CCS optimized its remote workforce and reduced its Total Cost of Ownership with a move to a cloud-native environment

SAN ANTONIO, TX – May 23, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Rackspace Technology® (NASDAQ: RXT), a leading end-to-end, multicloud technology solutions company, today announced that audio-visual Integrator, CCS Presentation Systems, completed a complex cloud transition and improved security, scalability and productivity with a move to a cloud-native environment while optimizing its remote workforce and reducing its Total Cost of Ownership (TOC) with Rackspace Technology consulting and advisory services and Rackspace Elastic Engineering for Microsoft® Azure®.

CCS Presentation Systems is a leader in the commercial audio-visual integrator industry; CCS helps clients present a better image of themselves through technology. Founded 1981 in Scottsdale, Arizona, CCS has more than 350 employees and maintains a presence in 21 states and Washington, D.C.

With a firm deadline for moving to a new headquarters, CCS needed to move its business-critical IT infrastructure, including Active Directory and file servers, data storage, and disaster recovery from its on-premises environment. CCS partnered with Rackspace Technology to implement cloud networking, servers, and storage with backup and recovery services to achieve this complex migration.

“The objective was to reduce CCS’s reliance on a physical apparatus and transition its users to cloud-based technologies,” said D K Sinha, Rackspace Technology, President of Public Cloud. “The Rackspace and CCS teams worked together to troubleshoot the issue, electing to use the recently launched standard network features for Microsoft Azure.”

To execute the migration initiative, CCS had to switch to a new software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) provider, set up thin client terminals and synthesize a solution that addressed the design constraints imposed by the SD-WAN provider and the Microsoft networking stack. The team adapted by leveraging a Microsoft networking stack for the file service and leveraged Microsoft Azure Virtual Desktops.

In just two months, CCS was able to transition to Microsoft Azure Virtual Desktop while, at the same time, moving to its new headquarters. The move resulted in a reduction in downtime and an increase in workplace productivity. Removing aging technology and transitioning to a cloud-based approach has helped CCS save time and costs and improve performance while enabling the company to avoid upgrading equipment every few years.

“Partnering with Rackspace was instrumental for designing and implementing cloud-based solutions that enabled us to take our digital evolution to the next level because we didn’t have to hire several skilled individuals to make it happen,” said David Glockner, Director of IT, CCS Presentation Services. “Thanks to Rackspace Elastic Engineering, which was crucial, I could rely on a pod of resources as needed, and our employees have been excited to experience the new technology. To many, it seems new and alien. But once they caught on, it’s exciting to watch them say, ‘Wow, this is cool!”

Cloud IBR helps businesses of all sizes prepare for and recover from disaster — from ransomware to natural catastrophes

SAN MATEO, CA – May 22, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Backblaze, Inc. (Nasdaq: BLZE), the leading specialized storage cloud platform, recently shared news of a new disaster recovery service built on the B2 Cloud Storage: Continuity Centers’ Cloud Instant Business Recovery (Cloud IBR) which instantly recovers Veeam backups from from the Backblaze B2 Storage Cloud.

Instant Business Recovery follows Backblaze’s Instant Recovery in Any Cloud, launched in May 2022. Building on the original Infrastructure as Code (IaC) package, Cloud IBR is the second generation solution that further simplifies disaster recovery plans. The easy to use interface and affordability make Cloud IBR an ideal disaster recovery solution designed for small and medium size businesses (SMBs) who are typically priced out of effective disaster recovery solutions. Additionally, Continuity Centers combines the automation-driven Veeam REST API calls with phoenixNAP Bare Metal Cloud platform into a unified system, to completely streamline the user experience.

The fully-automated service deploys a recovery process through a simple web UI, and in the background, uses phoenixNAP’s Bare Metal Cloud servers to import Veeam backups stored in Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage, and fully restores the customer’s server infrastructure. The solution hides the complexity of dealing with automation scripts and APIs and offers a simple interface to stand up an entire cloud infrastructure when you need it, paying only for the duration you need it for.

“Cloud IBR gives small and mid-market companies the highest level of business continuity available, against disasters of all types. It’s a simple and accessible solution for SMBs to embrace,” said Gregory Tellone, CEO of Continuity Centers. “We developed this solution with affordability and availability in mind, so that businesses of all sizes can benefit from our decades of disaster recovery experience, which is often financially out of reach for the SMB.”

Previously, mid-market businesses were underserved by disaster recovery and business continuity planning because the requirements and efforts are often foregone due to more immediate business demands. Additionally, many disaster recovery solutions are designed for larger size companies and do not meet the specific needs for SMBs. Cloud IBR allows businesses of all sizes to instantly stand up their entire server infrastructure in the cloud, at a moment’s notice with a single click, making it easy to plan for and easy to execute.

Additionally, the Cloud IBR Silver Package will be offered at no cost for one year to any Veeam customers that purchase Backblaze’s B2 Reserve. Those customers can activate Cloud IBR within 30 days of purchasing Backblaze’s B2 Reserve service.

“Launching Cloud IBR is taking our technology a step further in making disaster recovery from ransomware more accessible to small and mid-size businesses at a time when it’s needed more than ever,” said Nilay Patel, Co-Founder and Vice President of Sales at Backblaze. “We are excited to work with a disaster recovery specialist like Continuity Centers to bring a simple and affordable disaster recovery solution to businesses who need it the most.”

Backblaze provides developers, businesses, and consumers with cloud services to store and use their data in an easy and affordable manner, serving as a foundation for customers to back up and archive data, host content, manage media, build applications, and more. Backblaze’s mission is to make storing and using data astonishingly easy.
