Geoffrey Coley, regional CTO for Asia Pacific region at Veritas stated: “In the current macro landscape, data security is becoming increasingly complex, and IT teams are under mounting pressure to ensure that data is always available, with only limited resources. That’s why we’re focused on making recovery simpler, smarter and faster.

"By strengthening cyber resilience capabilities with expanded AI assistance and intuitive management, we eliminate the guesswork and trial and error from the recovery process. Organisations can now bounce back from ransomware attacks quickly and confidently, minimising business disruption.”

Cyber recovery is simpler, smarter and faster through the following improvements:

The Veritas Alta View platform features an enhanced, intuitive user interface, streamlining navigation and making operations simple for both IT specialists and multi-tasking generalists. The dashboard integrates AI-driven insights and a cyber risk score for real-time, actionable analytics. Enhanced visualisation tools allow users to monitor their entire data estate, proactively manage risks and expedite cyber recovery.

Veritas Alta Copilot automatically scans and identifies unprotected assets, recommends and applies tailored protection, and instantly integrates with existing protection policies to ensure that all critical data is covered.

Accelerated threat detection and response

Enhanced security, accelerated threat detection, and more rapid ransomware response is now delivered through hash-based tracking of malware in backup data and blast radius analysis. Once malware is identified, new functionality reduces the time to scan and assess the spread across the entire estate by up to 93%.

Automated recovery blueprints 

Proactive disaster management and cyber recovery can now be achieved using a new interactive guide that enables IT teams to easily create, automate, test, and edit workflow plans. Blueprints can be customised at a granular level across multiple domains, including complex hybrid, platform-as-a-service, and container environments.

Automated recovery point recommendations 

Optimised recovery is now possible through proactive, in-depth analysis that provides recommended recovery points. This reduces recovery time and potential data loss by eliminating the need to manually identify the “last-known good copy”, relying instead on risk engine analysis to minimise the dependence on costly malware scans.

The new Veritas Copilot features will be available in October. All other capabilities will be delivered through updates to Veritas NetBackup, Veritas Alta Data Protection and Veritas Alta View, available in September.
