Case Study: CQUniversity achieves stronger cyber resilience and faster recovery with Veeam Data Platform and Veeam Data Cloud Vault

Prepared for anything CQUniversity protects critical systems against cyber threats and natural disasters with Veeam

CQUniversity, one of Australia’s most inclusive universities, needed to strengthen data resilience against cyberattacks and natural disasters while reducing the manual effort of protecting about 1.6PB of data across a hybrid environment. The university turned to Veeam, using Veeam Data Platform and later Veeam Data Cloud Vault to better protect critical systems for thousands of staff and students.

Veeam automated backup and recovery workflows across CQUniversity’s core services, including Active Directory, SQL Server, DNS, DHCP, CRM, LMS, HR, and payroll systems. As a result, CQUniversity expanded backup coverage while cutting time spent on data protection by 10%, improved recovery speed with Instant Recovery, and strengthened cyber-defenses with immutable, off-site cloud backups.
