This technology allows to swap hard drives for the backup chains, so that one or more hard drives are offline and air gapped from the network in case of an attack. Rotated media is a repository option we have had for years, with many customers successfully protecting themselves from ransomware attacks. This technology can have an image of being archaic but is arguably the cheapest option for an on-premises solution. There is nothing more protected from a ransomware attack than media that is disconnected from the network. The cost per TB of storage can be as low as $5, meaning there can be redundant copies of the backup data kept and rotated to be offline (air gapped) for a reasonable cost. Tapes are less likely to be hit by ransomware, which means your data is safer in the event of an attack. Tape can be a great asset when it comes to laying down a defense against ransomware. This option can have a higher cost for long-term retention types but is one of the most secure off-premises ways to save your backups.

The means not even a malicious admin in the company who has access to everything can remove or modify the backups, let alone a ransomware attack. This tier leverages a native function of the object storage that prevents blocks from being changed or overwritten once stored for a specified amount of time.

Now that there is a firm foundation with the Veeam server protected and you now know why the 3-2-1 Rul e is a crucial concept for fighting ransomware, this article can help you build out your impenetrable options.
