Why This Matters

NAKIVO v11.2 introduces critical enhancements that bolster data protection against ransomware, improve recovery speed, and ensure compatibility with the latest virtualization platforms. These updates are vital for IT teams seeking resilient, secure, and efficient backup solutions in increasingly complex hybrid environments.

Key Takeaways

The new release adds automated replication, support for newer VMware vSphere and Proxmox versions, and modern authentication for faster, safer recovery.

Sparks, Nevada – April 3rd, 2026 – NAKIVO Inc., trusted by over 16,000 organizations in 191 countries, announced the general availability of NAKIVO Backup & Replication v11.2, focused on fast, reliable, and proactive data protection.

As ransomware attacks evolve and downtime costs rise, v11.2 provides IT teams with tools to quicken recovery, support next-generation infrastructure, and maintain secure data protection without added complexity.

Automated Real-Time Replication

At the core of v11.2 is an automated real-time replication engine. It keeps replica VMs synchronized with production workloads, allowing organizations to fail over to a recent replica within minutes after hardware failures, ransomware, or human error.

For businesses where every minute of downtime carries measurable financial or reputational consequences, this capability closes one of the most dangerous blind spots in traditional backup strategies: The window between the last scheduled job and the moment of failure.

Support for VMware vSphere 9 and Proxmox VE 9.0 and 9.1

Keeping your backup stack aligned with hypervisor versions is mission-critical for teams managing VMware, Proxmox, or hybrid environments. NAKIVO Backup & Replication v11.2 addresses that directly while also tightening security and laying the groundwork for faster disaster recovery.

Full VMware vSphere 9 Support

The most significant update for VMware administrators: v11.2 delivers complete, production-ready support for vSphere 9, including vCenter Server 9.0.1.0, ESXi 9.0.1.0, and VDDK 9.0.1.0.
