Each year, Veeam contracts independent research firms to survey IT leaders and implementers on various data protection topics. The surveys are intentionally not just Veeam customers, but a broad representation of the market.

This year’s report surveyed 1,200 respondents — comprised of CISOs (or executives with similar responsibility), security professionals, and backup administrators — whose organizations suffered at least one ransomware attack in 2023 to assess different perspectives in the united fight against ransomware. 350 respondents were from Europe, and this Executive Summary isolates the findings exclusively for this region.
