Case Study: A four-year private university protects backups from ransomware with Object First Ootbi

University Ransomware-Proofs Backups with Ootbi by Object First

A private university in the Midwest was facing the challenge of protecting its data from a significant rise in ransomware attacks, a top concern for the higher education sector. They required a backup solution that offered true and easily deployable immutability to meet future cyber insurance requirements and ensure student and faculty information was secure. They chose Ootbi by Object First.

The Object First solution provided the university with a simple-to-deploy, on-premises storage appliance that delivered ransomware-proof immutability, seamless integration with their existing Veeam environment, and rapid restore speeds. The results included protected data from ransomware, an easy-to-manage system that was often forgotten once running, and the peace of mind that comes with having a reliable and secure layer of defense.
