Veeam Software to showcase data resilience innovations at GITEX GLOBAL 2025

Veeam Software, in collaboration with ITWeb, is set to host an exclusive webinar designed for Africa’s data management, risk, and IT security leaders. Scheduled for October 15, the session will unpack strategies tailored to the unique challenges faced by African enterprises as they embrace cloud adoption at scale. The focus will be on building resilience through SaaS data protection, a critical area as businesses seek to ensure compliance, safeguard against cyber threats, and maintain operational continuity in the digital age. The webinar comes at a time when protecting SaaS data has become a business imperative rather than an optional consideration. With SaaS platforms forming the backbone of modern business operations, Veeam will spotlight its SaaS data protection solutions, emphasizing reliable backup and recovery as a way to give organisations full control over their data. These offerings not only support compliance requirements but also strengthen defenses against the increasing sophistication of cyber risks. As part of the session, Veeam will also present insights from a recent survey it conducted with ITWeb, providing an in-depth look into how African businesses are currently approaching data resilience. Among the findings, the majority of organisations already rely on backup data as an additional line of defense, and many regularly conduct security assessments to identify vulnerabilities within their backup infrastructure. These practices are transforming backup from a passive safeguard into a proactive security asset that underpins resilience in the modern digital enterprise. The event will feature expert speakers, including Veeam’s Brendan Widlake, Regional Sales Director for Africa, and Ian Engelbrecht, Senior Manager of Technical Sales for Africa. Their expertise will guide discussions on best practices and practical strategies that empower businesses to navigate risks effectively while building stronger digital foundations. With real-world examples and actionable insights, attendees will walk away better equipped to address today’s pressing data challenges. Designed for CIOs, CTOs, IT managers, SaaS administrators, risk and compliance leaders, as well as IT practitioners, the webinar is an essential opportunity for decision makers to gain valuable knowledge on securing SaaS data. By attending, leaders across industries can learn how to leverage modern strategies to ensure business resilience, strengthen security, and unlock the full value of their digital transformation journeys. #Veeam #ITWeb #DataResilience #SaaSProtection #CyberSecurity #CloudAdoption #DataManagement #DigitalResilience #ITSecurity #BackupAndRecovery #AfricaTech #BusinessContinuity https://lnkd.in/d56aB4BM

SIEM Cost Models Are Unsustainable Gartner’s new research, 3 Strategies to Trim SIEM Cost Bloat, makes it clear: legacy SIEM pricing and architecture don’t scale. To stay competitive, security teams must be more strategic about what data enters their SIEM and where the rest resides. At Securonix, we built our platform around this exact principle. With our Data Pipeline Manager (DPM), you can: ✅ Route only high-value telemetry into your SIEM ✅ Store and search supplemental data cost-effectively ✅ Cut hot storage costs by up to 60% while maintaining full visibility We believe cost efficiency doesn’t have to come at the expense of security. Gartner’s guidance echoes what we built from day one. 📥 Want to see how you can align your SIEM to this new standard?

In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity, a recent report from Gartner highlights a critical shift: 70% of organizations are expected to implement Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) by 2025. This approach integrates network and security services, offering a more robust defense against emerging threats. Check out the full report here: https://lnkd.in/gdmb_pWE Why does this matter now? As businesses continue to embrace hybrid work models, the traditional network perimeter is dissolving. SASE provides a flexible, scalable solution that aligns with these new realities, ensuring secure access regardless of location. This shift is not just about technology; it's about redefining how we approach security in a borderless enterprise environment. For those navigating compliance landscapes, SASE also offers a streamlined path to meeting regulatory requirements. By consolidating security functions, organizations can more easily demonstrate compliance with frameworks like GDPR and CCPA, reducing complexity and risk. As we look to the future, how do you see SASE impacting your organization's security strategy? Are there specific challenges you're anticipating as you consider this transition? #CyberStrategy #TechTrends #ComplianceReady #Insight (UTM link in the first comment)
