Ransomware-Proof Backup Storage, Purpose-Built for Veeam
Why Object First?
Absolute Immutability. Simply Resilient.
66% of organisations have been hit by ransomware attacks in the last two years – many more than once. In 96% of cases, backups are the target. When your backups are compromised, recovery becomes impossible and downtime becomes catastrophic.
That's why we partner with Object First to deliver Ootbi: on-premises backup storage with Absolute Immutability, purpose-built for Veeam. It's the best and last line of defence, ensuring your data is always recoverable - no matter what.
Most backup storage solutions treat immutability as an afterthought - bolted on after the fact, sometimes requiring deep Linux knowledge and ongoing security expertise to configure and maintain. Ootbi is fundamentally different. It's built from the ground up on Zero Trust architecture with S3-native object storage. Your backup data is immutable from the moment it's written. No time gaps. No configuration complexity. No chance for ransomware to act before protection kicks in.
Secure
Your data is protected by Absolute Immutability, meaning no one — not even privileged admins or attackers with stolen credentials — can modify or delete your backups.
Immutability is built into the architecture, not layered on
Separation of backup software and storage reduces attack surface
Built on Zero Trust Data Resilience (ZTDR) principles
Third-party tested and publicly verified for transparency
