Hello Veeam Community and Product Team,
As a Data Recovery specialist, I frequently deal with the aftermath of modern ransomware attacks that partially encrypt backup files, as well as severe storage media failures.
To better protect our mutual customers, I would like to ask: is it appropriate to discuss the internal structure of Veeam Backup files in this community? Specifically, I am interested in proposing architectural improvements such as embedding additional recovery context directly into the data block headers. This would enable the extraction of all surviving data even in the event of a 100% metadata (Metabank/Snapshot Slot) loss.
Could you clarify if such technical discussions and feature requests regarding file format resilience are welcome here? Or are discussions involving deep binary layout analysis or file structure forensics generally subject to moderation due to EULA restrictions?
I am asking to ensure I follow the correct channels for sharing feedback that could genuinely improve disaster recovery outcomes.
Thank you for your time and for building a great product.
