If the result is negative, probably the backup file is corrupted:įinally, You can automatize the checking of you backup files with Microsoft PowerShell script. If the content of the backup is consistent, at least you will be able to exclude the file as a possible problem, and you can investigate somewhere else. Once the check is complete, the final result will appear (successfully or failed): Veeam Backup Validator will check the files inside the Virtual Machines (VMX, VMDK etc.). \ /backup:”YOUR-JOB-NAME” /report:”D:report.html” /format:html The tool will start checking all the files comprised in the backup file: Then, you can launch the checking process on the target job that you need to verify. Basically, you can not check your standalone backup file via the tool. Note: Backup file has to be implemented into your Veeam Backup Server otherwise the tool does not work. Then, move into Veeam Backup and Replication folder by using this command line: cd “C:\Program Files\Veeam\Backup and Replication\Backup” Note: If the tool is not run, you should execute a terminal console (cmd):

exe file “”, path: C:\Program Files\Veeam\Backup and Replication\Backup.

#VEEAM ALTERNATIVE LICENSE#

Veeam Backup Validator is an alternative if a Standard license is used by your Veeam Backup Server or if you don’t have the required resources (compute) to create a Virtual Lab.

#VEEAM ALTERNATIVE VERIFICATION#

The SureBackup job aggregates all settings and policies of the recovery verification task, such as application group and Virtual Lab to be used, VM backups that must be verified in the virtual lab and so on. This feature is not a SureBackup job! A SureBackup job is an automated task for recovery verification by starting the Virtual Machines from the backup file. You can easily check your backup files with a command line tool located into the installation folder of the software: (path: C:\Program Files\Veeam\Backup and Replication\Backup). Sign up for AdvIntel services and get the most actionable intel on impending ransomware attacks, adversarial preparations for data stealing, and ongoing network investigation operations by the most elite cybercrime collectives.Veeam Backup Validator is an unknown feature that allows checking the consistency of a backup created with Veeam Backup and Replication. Enabled backups tremendously decrease Conti’s ransom demands and can likely lead to data recovery with zero payments to the Conti collective.ĭisrupt ransomware attacks & prevent data stealing with AdvIntel’s threat disruption solutions.

#VEEAM ALTERNATIVE PASSWORD#

Special security protocol, password update, and account security measures for Veeam should be implemented to prevent Veeam account takeover. Rclone and other data exfiltration command-line interface activities can be captured through proper logging of process execution with command-line arguments.

To prevent lateral movement, network hierarchy protocols and should be implemented with network segregation and decentralization.Īudit and/or block command-line interpreters by using whitelisting tools, like AppLocker or Software Restriction Policies with the focus on any suspicious “curl” command and unauthorized “.msi” installer scripts particularly those from C:\ProgramData and C:\Temp directory Tracking externally exposed endpoints is therefore critical. Sometimes Conti uses corporate VPN compromise and TrickBot delivery as an alternative means for attack initiation. Conti uses very developed social engineering techniques in order to convince the victim employees that the targeted emails are legitimated.

To prevent the attack initiations, employee training, and email security protocols should be implemented. Secure backup solutions and mitigations listed will enable any possible victims to leave Conti without their demanded ransom money. Maintaining developed protocols of access rights hierarchy, network security, and password hygiene, as well as systemic network monitoring aimed at spotting abnormal network behavior may significantly reduce the chances of Conti successfully removing backups. This way, Conti simultaneously exfiltrated the data for further victim blackmailing, while leaving the victim with no chances to quickly recover their files as the backups are removed. Conti hunts for Veeam privileged users and services and leverages to access, exfiltrate, remove and encrypt backups to ensure ransomware breaches are un-”backupable”. Conti group is particularly methodical in developing and implementing backup removal techniques.Ĭonti’s tactics are based on utilizing the skills of their network intruders or “pentesters” in order to ensure to target on-premise and cloud backup solutions. Backups are a major obstacle for any ransomware operation as they allow the victim to resume business by performing data recovery instead of paying ransom to the criminals.Ĭyber groups specifically target backup solutions in order to ensure that the victim has no other option except for paying the ransom.
