Zero Trust is a pivotal security framework that continuously verifies identities and access controls, moving away from traditional perimeter-based models by assuming no user, device, or application can be inherently trusted. In backup and recovery environments, where these principles are crucial due to frequent targeting by attackers, adopting strategies such as least privilege access, multi-factor authentication, data isolation, immutability, and encryption enhances protection against data tampering and breach impact. These environments also benefit from rigorous audits, threat monitoring, and testing of recovery procedures to maintain resilience across distributed systems. Zero Trust encourages IT and security team collaboration, bridging gaps with a shared focus on reducing security risks and strengthening data protection. At Veeam, we’re dedicated to implementing Zero Trust practices to bolster data resilience and security for all our customers.
