The 4 S’s of Veeam & Wasabi: A Powerful Data Loss Solution

Cybersecurity is top of mind for every company, but the real threat isn’t just a breach; it’s data loss. Losing critical files, emails, or applications can bring your business to a halt, damage your reputation, and put sensitive information into the wrong hands. Proactively protecting your data is essential. 

That’s where Veeam and Wasabi come in: a powerful, affordable, and easy-to-manage coupled solution that ensures your backups are safe, accessible, and ready if and when you need them. Veeam & Wasabi integrate seamlessly and easily to create a great data security tag-team. Veeam handles the creation of your backups, and Wasabi stores them in its secure off-site cloud locations.

Enter Veeam and Wasabi 

Veeam

Veeam is a powerful backup & recovery engine. It creates and manages backups, with the benefit of easy and reliable scheduling and automation. This protects your servers, laptops, operating systems, and critical apps.

That means that if and when you suffer data loss, Veeam ensures you have a current backup and restores your data when the unthinkable happens. 

Wasabi

Wasabi is Veeam’s partner in data security. Given the risk of data loss, it’s important that your regular backups are stored in a secure location. Wasabi provides secure, low-cost cloud storage, providing a safe off-site place to store backups. 

Wasabi is also highly durable, ensuring your data is reliably secured and protected from loss or corruption over the long term. This means your files don’t degrade over time, and won’t disappear due to hardware failures. Durability is like keeping your valuables in a safe that is designed to withstand fire, water damage, and break-ins, not just putting them in a drawer.

The 4 S’s of Veeam & Wasabi’s Data Protection

Security

This combo provides multi-layered protection to keep your critical information safe in the face of a ransomware attack. Veeam ensures your backups are immutable, meaning they cannot be altered or deleted, even if hackers access your network. Because of Wasabi’s cloud storage, those backups stay safe, even if hackers get into your network.

Speed 

When something goes wrong, time is of the essence. Wasabi allows you to access your backups quickly.  For example, if a system failure occurs, you can restore your files, emails, apps, or even your entire operating system. This keeps your operations running and minimizes downtime.

Simplicity

The Veeam and Wasabi combination is simple to manage. Veeam connects to a Wasabi’s secure, cloud storage container (known as a bucket). After that, your retention preferences for automated backup jobs run consistently in the background. You stay informed about your storage through ongoing reporting and alerts.

Scalability

This solution scales with your business as it grows. As the amount of data and devices you have increases, your Veeam backups adapt. In Wasabi, you can add more storage instantly, without buying new hardware, and easily expand protection to new devices, servers, or applications as they come online. It’s a future-proof approach that adapts to your needs and helps you avoid expensive infrastructure upgrades.

Protecting your business from data loss doesn’t have to be complicated. By combining Veeam’s backup capabilities with Wasabi’s cloud storage, you get a secure, speedy, simple, and scalable solution. From ransomware protection to instant recovery and long-term data retention, the Veeam + Wasabi combination gives your business peace of mind, allowing you to focus on growth, not downtime.
