Hybrid Trends with Veeam: Why Securtity.AI
In Part 2 of this Hybrid Trends conversation, Rob Sims sits down again with Michael Cade, Field CTO at Veeam, to unpack the next evolution of data resilience.
This episode moves beyond traditional backup to explore why Veeam made a bold move into data security and intelligence with the acquisition of Security AI.
Together, they dive into:
Why understanding and classifying data is now the foundation of cyber resilience
The rise of DSPM (Data Security Posture Management) and what it means for enterprises
How mapping data flows unlocks security, governance, and breach impact analysis
The shift from “data protection” to true data management and intelligence
Why clean, well-governed data is the key to unlocking safe AI adoption
Part 1 was about trends, this episode is about execution—and the platform shift redefining how organisations manage, secure, and extract value from their data.
