In today’s digital landscape, the threat of ransomware looms large, targeting organizations of all sizes and industries. As businesses increasingly rely on data backups for continuity and recovery, ensuring the security of these backups has become paramount. Sophos, a leader in cybersecurity solutions, has partnered with Veeam, a trusted provider of backup and recovery solutions, to offer enhanced protection against ransomware attacks. 

Detect and Stop Threats Targeting Backup Data 

Sophos MDR (Managed Detection and Response) and Sophos XDR (Extended Detection and Response) now seamlessly integrate with Veeam Backup & Replication, enabling organizations to detect and stop threats targeting business-critical backup data. This integration provides a holistic approach to cybersecurity, where backup and recovery are integral components of the defense strategy. 

Peace of Mind with Continuous Protection 

The partnership between Sophos and Veeam ensures that backup data is always available and protected. With Sophos MDR’s 24/7 security monitoring and threat investigation capabilities, organizations can detect and respond to suspicious activity in their Veeam environments promptly. This includes thwarting attempts to delete backup repositories, disabling multi-factor authentication, and compromising encryption passwords. 

Additionally, organizations utilizing Sophos XDR for in-house investigation and response can leverage Veeam telemetry to identify potentially malicious activity. By integrating threat detections from multiple sources into a single unified platform, businesses gain enhanced visibility and actionable insights to combat ransomware effectively. 

Superior Protection Against Ransomware 

Sophos’ MDR and XDR solutions feature CryptoGuard technology, universally detecting and stopping ransomware before it impacts systems. This superior prevention, detection, and response capabilities, combined with Veeam’s immutable backups and versioning, ensure backup data remains secure and recoverable. 

Elevating Defenses with Sophos’ Veeam Integration 

The new Veeam integration is available as an add-on for Sophos MDR and Sophos XDR subscriptions via the “Backup and Recovery” Integration Pack license. By investing in this integration, organizations can bolster their defenses against active adversaries, including those targeting backup repositories.
