Earl G. Matthews
President, Veeam Government Solutions
Earl Matthews’ biggest recent achievement was the launch of Veeam’s federal subsidiary, Veeam Government Solutions, and the creation of its advisory board, which he cites as crucial to the support VGS will provide to the federal government.
Matthews selected a carefully curated group of renowned U.S. government experts with diverse backgrounds and deep government relationships to help VGS refine and deliver solutions designed specifically for federal backup and modern data protection needs.
Matthews’ leadership has driven VGS’ development and success, said Bill Largent, Veeam CEO.
“He has always been committed to serving our country and continues to be as he supports agencies through VGS,” Largent said of Matthews. “Earl’s firsthand experience in the defense and intelligence communities positions him to directly address agency challenges with mission-focused data protection guidance and solutions.”

Moving forward, Matthews’ team is heavily focused on continually tailoring VGS offerings to the ever-changing needs of the federal government. This means nimbly adjusting to meet emerging guidelines, ensuring VGS consistently meets cybersecurity requirements and certifications and introducing new features designed for future government needs.
“Data is a strategic asset,” he said. “Modern data protection is critical to the continuity of governmental functions. At VGS, we’re dedicated to ensuring the federal government maintains constant and uninterrupted access to data.”
