From Passive to Proactive: A New Cyber Resilience Foundation
We are thrilled to announce a significant evolution of the Pure Storage Cyber Resilience solution, designed to transform your defense posture from passive to proactive. The announcements on September 25th deliver on three core pillars that are essential for modern defense: 1. Dynamic Response and Recovery: Recovery time must be measured in minutes, not days. We're introducing Pure Protect™ Recovery Zones to automatically provision Isolated Recovery Environments (IREs), plus a new Cyber Resilience delivered as a Service model with Veeam to guarantee instant, validated recovery. 2. Connected Detection: We’re eliminating security blind spots by embedding detection into the data layer itself. We have several new native detection capabilities and new integrations with CrowdStrike Real-Time Threat Graph and Superna Next-Gen SIEM to accelerate threat detection and remediation. 3. Built-in Security: Security is foundational. Our platform now features mandatory safeguards like TPM and UEFI Secure Boot and Enterprise-Grade Identity and Access Management to ensure the integrity of your platform from the ground up. See our Cyber Resilience announcement blog for more details.Ransomware’s Worst Nightmare: New Cyber Resilience Arsenal (new blog post)
With the barrage of new announcements coming out of NYC Accelerate, I wrote a new blog post that is relevant to all customers, but specific to State / Local Government and Education customers summarizing what is new and the value it brings in terms of Active Cyber Resilience.

At Pure Storage, we know that protecting your data is just as important as accessing it. That’s why I am excited to share the latest video on Pure360 (LINK), where I walk through the process of installing and configuring the Pure Storage Plugin for Veeam—a powerful integration designed to supercharge your VMware vSphere backup environment. In this step-by-step demo, you’ll see just how easy it is to enable the plugin and take advantage of Veeam’s native integration with Pure Storage arrays. By offloading storage-intensive tasks directly to the array, backups become faster, more efficient, and less disruptive to your production workloads. This means reduced load on your vSphere environment, shorter backup windows, and more time for your team to focus on driving innovation instead of babysitting backups. Enjoy! -Jason
Veeam v13 Integration and Plugin
Hi Everyone, We're new Pure customers this year and have two Flasharray C models, one for virtual infrastructure and the other will be used solely as a storage repository to back up those virtual machines using Veeam Backup and Replication. Our plan is to move away from the current windows-based Veeam v12 in favor of Veeam v13 hardened Linux appliances. We're in the design phase now but have Veeam v13 working great in separate environment with VMware and HPE Nimble. Our question is around Pure Storage and Veeam v13 integration and Plugin support. Veeam's product team mentions there is native integrations in v12, but that storage vendors should be "adopting USAPI" going forward. Is this something that Pure is working on, or maybe already has completed with Veeam Backup and Replication v13?
