Recognized for completeness of vision and
ability to execute
Veritas Technologies, the leader in secure multi-cloud data
resilience, today announced it has been positioned as a Leader in
the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Backup and Recovery
Software Solutions (EBRSS). Veritas is the only vendor that Gartner
has named a Leader in each of its last 19 enterprise backup and
recovery software reports.1
Continuously building on its reputation for innovation,
performance and flexibility across data protection, application
resilience and data compliance, Veritas proudly supports more than
90% of Fortune 100 companies and has helped guide the industry
through every significant IT disruption over the last 30 years.
Veritas is now partnering with customers to address a new era of
data challenges, where data protection and resiliency has become a
vital part of organizations’ IT strategies. The result is a unique
set of capabilities for managing the complexity of today’s
multi-cloud and heterogenous environments, while also hardening
their defenses against ransomware attacks.
Deepak Mohan, executive vice president of engineering at
Veritas, said: “The next frontier in data protection has arrived,
where very large numbers of cloud and on-premises applications need
to be protected from cyber-attacks, enabling organizations to
recover fast and at scale. Veritas is optimized to protect the
broadest range of platforms and enables customers to confidently
recover from all kinds of breaches. We believe that our consistent
position as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for EBRSS
underscores the strength of the Veritas product vision and breadth
of our cloud-native data resilience solutions.”
In recent months, Veritas has expanded its portfolio to include
several new capabilities:
Veritas 360 Defense
The first extensible architecture bringing together data
protection, data governance, and data security capabilities
integrated with an ecosystem of leading security and cloud
infrastructure vendors. Veritas 360 Defense has been battle tested
against real-world ransomware variants in the Veritas REDLab
isolated testing environment.
AI-powered cyber resilience solutions
Another first-of-its-kind, Veritas introduced self-defending
data protection functionality, which allows Veritas NetBackup and
Veritas Alta Data Protection to monitor and defend against threats
from compromised data protection user credentials. Veritas also
announced a generative AI-powered copilot to act as a sidekick in
the fight against cybercrime as well as to simplify other
operational tasks.
Extended cloud-native solution enhancements
Veritas additionally launched multiple enhancements to its Alta
cloud solutions, including simplified consumption reporting,
expanded support for workloads, such as Entra ID, and cross
platform support for Kubernetes workload recovery.
