Prove You Can Recover from Ransomware: Automated Backup Validation for VMware Cloud Foundation with IBM, Veeam, & Elastio
In an era where ransomware attacks are increasingly targeting backup infrastructure, relying on untested recovery points is a risk no enterprise can afford. For organizations standardizing on hybrid cloud infrastructure with VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF), the stakes are even higher—cybercriminals now aim beyond production data to corrupt or encrypt backup files, metadata, and even replication targets.
That’s why IBM, Veeam, and Elastio have partnered to deliver a proactive ransomware recovery assurance solution for VCF environments. Together, they offer not just secure backup and replication, but provable recovery. This integrated approach combines Veeam’s enterprise-grade backup, IBM’s immutable storage, and Elastio’s automated ransomware scanning and backup validation, giving organizations confidence that their recovery points are clean, bootable, and compliant.
Elastio seamlessly integrates into your VCF-based workloads, continuously scanning Veeam backups stored on IBM FlashSystem or object storage for signs of ransomware, encryption, and data corruption. Its AI-powered detection engine validates recoverability in an isolated, non-disruptive environment, producing detailed audit-ready reports to meet cyber insurance and regulatory standards like DORA, NYDFS, and NIST.
Whether you're preparing for compliance audits or bracing for the next cyberattack, this solution ensures your last line of defense is resilient, verified, and ready to restore.
