Cybersecurity and data recovery experts convene at VeeamON Tour India in Delhi to discuss advancing data resilience and best practices in cybersecurity
Veeam organises its VeeamON Tour India in Delhi today, delivering a rich experience to over 450+ registrants. This event brings together prominent industry leaders, organizations, and innovators to take part in thought leadership panels, forward-thinking planning sessions, and collaborative initiatives centred around Veeam’s ‘Bharat Cyber Suraksha Campaign – Enabling a Resilient Bharat’, aiming to shape the future of data resilience in India.
Ransomware continues to pose a significant threat to organizations, being the leading cause of IT outages and downtime. According to the 2024 Veeam Ransomware Trends Report, 41% of data is compromised during a cyberattack. VeeamON Tour India, tailored specifically for backup and recovery professionals, is designed to enhance their skills, provide insights into protecting businesses from ransomware, and facilitate the sharing of industry knowledge. The event featured exclusive content from partners like Microsoft, ExaGrid, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Lenovo and Red Hat offering valuable resources and strategies to combat this ongoing threat.
“We are incredibly proud to lead the global charge in data resilience. As India continues to emerge as a technological hub, our goal is to raise awareness about the critical importance of data resilience in an evolving threat landscape,” said Sandeep Bhambure, Vice President & Managing Director, Veeam Software for India & SAARC.
He further added, “Recognizing the urgent need to mitigate cyber threats that can undermine both reputation and revenue, Veeam offers robust solutions for data resilience. Through this year’s VeeamON Tour India and Cyber Suraksha Campaign, we aim to share our vision for the future of data resilience in a Digital Bharat and educate our community on combating security threats. This year’s VeeamON Tour India offers a glimpse into the cutting-edge innovations in the technological ecosystem, featuring keynotes, skill-building sessions, scholarship announcements, and extensive networking opportunities with over 30 speakers, including those from Microsoft, HPE, Red Hat, Lenovo, ExaGrid, Govt. of India, Policy Bazaar and Women in Cloud Brand Ambassadors.
As part of the Delhi leg of VeeamON Tour India, Veeam also shared insights from its first-ever ransomware whitepaper for the Indian market, titled “Comprehensive Ransomware Mitigation Strategies for India”. This whitepaper provides essential guidelines from the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In) on how to effectively respond to ransomware attacks. The whitepaper underscores the critical need to preventing ransomware attacks, given the substantial resources required for response and recovery. It also touches upon disaster recovery, business continuity, cyber resilience, and robust backup solutions, offering guidance for Indian organizations to safeguard themselves against cyber threats.
The event also featured deep-dives into Data Resilience, Copilot & AI, Data Protection & M365 Backup, Veeam Data Cloud (VDC), Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), and Collaboration & Partnerships, all integrated into solution-oriented roundtable discussions. These continued the event’s aim to equip professionals with the right skills to protect businesses from ransomware and foster a deep understanding of industry trends that chart the way forward for cyber resilience.Top of Form
