Presented by Rick Vanover, Vice President of Product Strategy • Veeam
Ransomware threats don’t discriminate. And as the industry’s leading provider of data resilience solutions, we’ve seen it all. Public sector organizations are just as likely to be targeted as those in the private sector, and the stakes can be even higher. Veeam’s latest Ransomware Trends Report exposes critical vulnerabilities and highlights why relying solely on backups is no longer enough to ensure resilience. In this session, Veeam’s VP of Product Strategy, Rick Vanover, will unpack the most common oversights that leave organizations — government, education, healthcare, and beyond — exposed to cyber threats, especially when backups become an overlooked back door in your security strategy.
Drawing from real-world incidents and hard-earned lessons, Rick will share what he wishes every IT professional knew before facing a ransomware or security breach event. You’ll leave with actionable insights, practical guidance, and research-backed recommendations to help you strengthen your data resilience. Whether you’re securing sensitive public sector data or safeguarding private enterprise information, this session will equip you to prepare for tomorrow’s threats today.
