I’m at the Veeam Boston User Group today before a few other matters I’m working on. This will be a thread where I will share good nuggets from the meeting!

I tried to shut up but could not help but share (sorry
If you want to turn on inline malware detection but are worried about the impact of it (as it is a global setting), you can turn it on but then exclude everything which will then effectively do no inline scanning.
Then gradually remove exclusions, which will ramp them up to being inline scanned explicitly. This can be significant as the CPU resources may be impacted and the next incremental backup will skip changed block tracking.

Discussed how for Veeam B&R servers without Internet can use KB1514 for the XML suspicious file list:

Discussed exclusion logic… There were examples of false positives, namely AutoCAD files! They apparently use .FUN files, which is an attribute of the Jigsaw ransomware.
I shared that it is reasonable to expect that there will be enhanced exclusion logic in a future release/update.

That situation had the vCenter as part of the evidence of the ransomware ‘crime scene’ - and it was not usable for recovery.
Lesson Learned: For DR sites, absolute separate is a good idea. So site-based vCenters, etc.
