Opti9 Technologies, a hybrid cloud solutions provider with a focus on security, cloud, and application modernization has come up with Observr Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) ransomware detection and standalone managed services. It includes two new discrete service offerings that cater to organizations leveraging Veeam Software.

As the difficulties of the IT division of organizations continue to evolve, the technical teams are extremely interested in shifting ownership to third-party service providers for critical layers of their stack.

This is especially applicable for backup and disaster recovery components, which must provide flexibility even after constant changes like the shift to hybrid clouds and SaaS, the use of software-defined networking, application modernization, and the extreme risks coupled with ransomware and data theft. 

Danny Allan, CTO at Veeam, said, “Opti9 has leveraged Veeam’s feature-rich API in an innovative and unique way to address the very real security challenges being faced by IT organizations. Observr by Opti9 allows Veeam customers to further strengthen their security posture and ensure their backup and disaster recovery infrastructure is protected via the use of Observr’s AI-based anomaly detection. Additionally, the SLA-backed threat detection service, and its integrations with security platforms such as SIEMs and XDR software, provide increased assurances from a trusted Veeam partner”

To address these requirements, many companies move to managed services providers for managing backups or Disaster Recovery-As-A-Service (BaaS/DRaaS).

However, the isolated nature and the rigidity of most offerings do not address the risks faced today. Companies are looking to decouple critical security monitoring from infrastructure services and value-added managed services.
