Summary

Show ▼
NAKIVO Backup & Replication v11.2 is now generally available, adding ransomware-resilience controls, OAuth 2.0 email authentication, and expanded VMware vSphere 9 and Proxmox VE 9 support that improve backup security and recovery reliability. The release matters because it reduces exposure from legacy authentication, narrows recovery gaps after failures or ransomware, and helps teams keep backup infrastructure aligned with newer virtualization platforms. It also adds automated real-time replication, giving operators a faster path to restore recent workloads. For multi-tenant and hybrid environments, the update strengthens operational consistency without adding much manual overhead.
