In 2022, the Veeam Data Protection Trends Report raised an alarming concern: 89% of organizations were not sufficiently cautious about data protection. Based on responses from over 3,000 IT professionals globally, the report highlighted a troubling imbalance—the volume of data is growing at such a rapid pace, and the rate of application modernization and deployment is so high, that many IT departments are struggling to protect data effectively using traditional backup and security solutions.
Several underlying factors contribute to the gap in data protection: cost, complexity, a lack of planning or awareness, and the underestimation of data loss risks. While some organizations are unaware of the dangers, others lack the tools, expertise, or resources needed for a resilient backup strategy. Fast-forward to 2025, and the situation has become even more critical. A recent report by a major software vendor revealed that two out of three organizations experienced significant data loss in the past year. Among more than 70,000 surveyed technology leaders, 67.7% reported major data-loss incidents, while the rest also experienced losses, albeit on a smaller scale.
