Commvault expands cyber resilience ecosystem

Commvault, a provider of cyber resilience and data protection solutions for the hybrid cloud announced an expansion of its cyber and data security ecosystem through strategic integrations with an array of security partners: Acante, Dasera, Google Cloud, Splunk, and Wiz.  

Cyber resilience

These integrations play a key role in helping joint customers advance cyber resilience in a variety of ways across on-premises, hybrid, and cloud environments from identifying potential threats or anomalies, to understanding where sensitive data exists, to accelerating clean recoveries.

These bi-directional integrations also empower customers to use their preferred security, data protection, and cyber recovery solutions.

Recovery ability

Only 13% of organisations are equipped to effectively defend against and rapidly recover from cyberattacks

Security operations teams can leverage these integrations to help better understand risks and threats, defend against them, and recover with confidence. The need for these types of integrations has never been more critical or timely. 

According to a recent study commissioned by Commvault and conducted by GigaOm, only 13% of organisations are equipped to effectively defend against and rapidly recover from cyberattacks, with 54% of these organisations expressing full confidence in their recovery abilities. For more on these findings, read the 2024 Cyber Recovery Readiness Report.  

Cyber security, DSPM, and AI

“Commvault is committed to partnering with industry leaders in cyber security, data security posture management (DSPM), and artificial intelligence (AI) with one goal in mind to help customers advance their security posture,” said Rajiv Kottomtharayil, Chief Product Officer, Commvault.

“It takes a village to fight today’s cyber threats, and through these integrations, we help enable our customers to build a bridge towards true organisational resilience.”
