These steps show how to add Microsoft Azure Archive Storage to the backup infrastructure as a backup repository. This repository can only be used as an archive extension of the scaled-out backup repository.
Veeam Backup & Replication allows you to prevent data deletion from the object storage repository by making it momentarily immutable and protecting data from malware activity by keeping several versions of a single backup.
To add Microsoft Azure Blob Storage as an object repository without immutability, you normally integrate the Azure Blob Storage service to store and manage objects without enforcing retention or immutability requirements.
To add Microsoft Azure Compute Accounts to Veeam Backup & Replication (or Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure), you must first integrate your Azure environment with Veeam, which will manage the backup and restoration of Azure Virtual Machines and other computing resources.

Veeam Backup & Replication allows you to prevent data deletion from the archive extent by making it temporarily immutable. It is done to improve security: immutability safeguards your data against loss due to attacks, malware activity, or other malicious actions.
Azure Archive Storage is a low-cost, high-durability cloud storage tier inside Azure Blob Storage specifically built for infrequently accessed data and long-term storage. It is the most cost-effective storage tier for data you do not need to access frequently, making it suitable for backup data you wish to keep for an extended term.
There are some immutability limits in the Azure Blob Storage.
Veeam Backup&Replication supports different types of storage accounts.
With an Azure free account, you can free use Azure Database for MySQL – Flexible Server for 12 months.
Safe Links is a feature in Microsoft Defender for Office 365 (formerly known as Office 365 Advanced Threat Protection or ATP) that helps protect your organization from malicious hyperlinks in email messages. When an email contains a hyperlink, Safe Links checks the URL against a list of known malicious links. If the link is safe, the user can access the website normally. However, if the link is malicious, Safe Links blocks access to the website and alerts the user and administrators.
In Microsoft Defender for Office 365, Safe Attachments is a feature that helps protect your organization from malicious email attachments. It automatically scans email attachments for potential threats, such as malware or viruses, before delivering them to recipients’ mailboxes.
Creating a custom quarantine policy in Microsoft Defender for Office 365 involves configuring advanced threat protection settings to protect your organization’s email environment.
Strict preset security policies typically refer to predefined rules and guidelines designed to enhance security measures within an organization or system. These policies safeguard sensitive data, prevent unauthorized access, and mitigate potential security threats.
An email message internet header is a metadata set containing information about the sender, recipient, routing, and delivery of an email. It can help you find the domain name of the trusted ARC sealers. The domain name must match the domain specified in the d value of the ARC-Seal and ARC-Message-Signature headers in affected messages.
Authenticated Received Chain (ARC) is a mechanism used in email authentication protocols to address the issues of message forwarding and intermediary handling of emails. It is designed to improve the reliability and security of email authentication systems like SPF (Sender Policy Framework) and DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail).
Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance (DMARC) builds upon SPF and DKIM to give domain owners greater control over how recipient servers handle their email messages. With DMARC, domain owners can specify policies instructing recipient servers on how to handle emails that fail SPF or DKIM checks. DMARC also enables domain owners to receive reports on email authentication results, allowing them to monitor and improve their email security posture.
DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) allows email senders to sign their outgoing emails digitally using cryptographic signatures. These signatures are stored as DKIM records in the domain’s DNS settings. Recipients’ mail servers can then use these signatures to verify that the email content has not been tampered with and originated from an authorized sender.
Veeam released the version of Veeam Backup for Microsoft 7a on December 5, 2023. The Cumulative patches contain Veeam Backup and replication v12.1 compatibility and the ability to set email notifications with Google and M365 accounts in Veeam Explorers.
