Nitrogen ransomware was derived from the previously leaked Conti 2 builder code and is similar to other Conti-based ransomware, but a coding mistake in its ESXi malware causes it to encrypt files with the wrong public key, irreversibly corrupting them. In practice, this means even the threat actor can’t decrypt affected files. If victims don’t …

Security evolves alongside what we build. When we built networks, we got network firewalls. When we built web applications, we added web application firewalls (WAFs), API gateways, and application-layer controls. Now that teams are shipping products that can reason over unstructured text, retrieve private data, and trigger actions through tools, security is shifting again. The …

Summary: Data sovereignty in SaaS has become a board‑level priority as organizations seek to balance agility with the control of sensitive cloud‑based data, such as Microsoft 365 content. True sovereignty extends beyond data residency. It requires legal, operational, and technical ownership through encryption, immutability, and verified backup and recovery. A compliance‑centric approach can transform data …

Key Takeaways: Ransomware is on the rise. Nearly 69 percent of organizations faced a ransomware incident in 2024–2025 (Veeam Risk to Resilience Report 2025). Traditional backups recover data but cannot detect active threats. Attackers now run slow, stealth campaigns that evade resource‑spike alerts and standard monitoring tools. Veeam’s Ransomware Detection Service adds AI‑powered threat intelligence …

Key Takeaways: Human targeting remains the primary attack vector. Phishing and social engineering now span email, voice, and chat applications. Remote access compromise is the #1 entry point. VPN or SaaS credentials are stolen and reused to breach networks. Unpatched vulnerabilities may be exploited within 24 hours. Faster patching and strong vulnerability management are critical. Immutable …

Kubernetes is everywhere; it’s the de facto orchestration layer for modern infrastructure. Thanks to its scalability, declarative management, and ability to dynamically allocate resources across heterogeneous environments, Kubernetes powers everything from cloud-native applications to virtual machines (VMs) and AI. However, as we rush to modernize our stacks, containerize all the things, and deploy our apps, …

TL;DR – Key Takeaways Proxmox High Availability (HA) automatically restarts virtual machines on healthy nodes when failures occur, keeping workloads online with minimal disruption. Even brief outages can impact operations and customer trust.HA ensures critical services keep running without manual intervention. Proxmox HA delivers reliable uptime and fault tolerance but lacks built‑in backup, recovery, and ransomware protection. Veeam Backup & Replication complements Proxmox HA with immutable backups and enterprise‑grade resilience. What Is Proxmox High Availability? When …

Key Takeaways: Security awareness training builds human resilience, not just compliance. Teach employees to spot manipulation, urgency, authority, and traps before they click. Phishing and social engineering dominate breaches. Train teams to pause, verify, and report suspicious messages to strengthen your human firewall. Strong passwords and MFA protect accounts. Use password managers and app‑based multi-factor authentication (MFA) with number matching. Avoid SMS fallbacks to stop credential attacks. Backups and ransomware readiness ensure data recovery. Combine awareness training with immutable backups and fast restore through Veeam Data Platform. When employees understand how attackers think, they become your first line of …

Migrating and/or replatforming can be intimidating. And for good reason — there are often many complex and disparate systems with varying levels of tech debt, multiple teams, stakeholders, and business units involved. They need to be consulted, assist with pre- and post-migration activities, and often have aggressive timelines with little flexibility in terms of downtime …
