Cohesity announced an expanded partnership with Google Cloud to help organizations combat the rising tide of sophisticated cyber threats. On average, enterprises spent $540,000 per hour in downtime, illustrating the critical need for robust cyber resilience strategies that can reduce downtime in their business.
These new solutions will enable organizations to prepare for cyber threats by helping them detect threats earlier, respond to incidents comprehensively, and recover critical data rapidly when attacks occur, dramatically reducing business risk and operational disruption for joint customers.
In addition to enhancing cyber resilience, these updates will include new capabilities such as AI-powered search and advanced reasoning that will make it easier for joint customers to gain new insight and value from critical business data regardless of where it is hosted.
