The ransomware-proof backup storage equipment designed specifically for Veeam®, Ootbi (Out-of-the-Box-Immutability), is supplied by Object First, which today announced the hiring of Andrew Wittman as its Chief Marketing Officer (CMO)

Wittman, a growth marketing specialist with extensive knowledge of the enterprise technology sector, is a valuable addition to Object First’s growing team and will assist in taking the business to the next phase of its development.

According to David Bennett, CEO of Object First, choosing a CMO is considerably more than just finding someone with marketing experience. It’s about finding a visionary leader who can strategically elevate our brand, spark creativity, and forge meaningful connections with our partners and customers. Andrew exemplifies all of these and more, therefore we are thrilled to have him join our leadership team. He was sure that his efforts would have a beneficial effect on our company’s future stage.

Wittman has twenty-five years of experience in infrastructure management, backup and disaster recovery, and cybersecurity. In his career, he has worked at start-ups, Fortune 100 companies, and agencies to generate demand, accelerate growth, and increase brand recognition. He has concentrated especially on creating profitable channel businesses that gain from both partners and customers. Wittman held CMO positions at Axcient, Webroot, Okta, and CA Technologies before joining Object First. Additionally, he worked for Wily Technology, Citigate Cunningham, ePropose, and FICO in a variety of leading marketing capacities. He is Columbia University alumnus.

By providing a safe, user-friendly, and potent ransomware-proof backup storage solution, Object First provides partners and clients with immediate value. The need for a product like Ootbi that provides true resilience without necessitating security expertise is enormous, according to Wittman, as ransomware is becoming more and more common and backups are one of its main targets. He is excited to collaborate with the outstanding Object First team and our expanding network of partners to increase the security of every Veeam customer’s backup data.

For Veeam® users, Ootbi by Object First offers safe, easy-to-use, and robust backup storage that is immutable and resistant to ransomware right out of the box. In fifteen minutes, the appliance can be powered, stacked, and racked. Ootbi’s unrivaled backup and recovery performance is derived from its immutable object storage technology. With Ootbi by Object First, you can do away with the need to compromise on simplicity and performance in order to stay within your budget.
