Cohesity unveils AI-driven RecoveryAgent to automate cyber recovery
Cohesity has announced the launch of RecoveryAgent, an AI-powered orchestration solution designed to automate and accelerate cyber recovery processes for organisations using Cohesity NetBackup and DataProtect. RecoveryAgent aims to support organisations in managing the complexity of modern IT environments, which often include physical, virtual, and cloud-based systems. The solution addresses cyber recovery challenges by generating customisable blueprints to automate recovery workflows in response to incidents, while helping to maintain data integrity, availability, and regulatory compliance. The interface of RecoveryAgent allows teams to build recovery plans using scripted workflows that integrate key steps for effective incident response, such as threat hunting, malware scanning, and instant restoration of data. The platform enables rehearsed recoveries within non-production environments to verify blueprints, allowing organisations to ensure readiness without disrupting production operations. RecoveryAgent features Agentic AI capabilities intended to assist recovery teams with rapid creation and modification of recovery blueprints, automated testing of cyber impacts and disaster scenarios, and management of granular recovery across complex hybrid environments, including on-premises infrastructure, cloud deployments, platform-as-a-service, and containers. Automated threat scanning is also included, using both native tools and threat intelligence from Data Security Alliance partners, alongside intelligent recommendations for recovery points and analysis of potentially compromised files. The solution is designed to provide clarity on recovery times and alignment with business service-level agreements, while also assisting customers in demonstrating compliance with regulatory and business requirements by executing standard recovery practices. Vasu Murthy, Chief Product Officer at Cohesity, commented on the launch: "Every moment matters to customers experiencing a cyber incident. Having a comprehensive and thoroughly tested incident response plan can be the difference between minimal disruption and massive impact. By simplifying and automating every step of the complex cyber recovery process, RecoveryAgent helps customers boost resilience and respond faster with more confidence to cyber incidents. The world's largest organisations trust Cohesity because we understand the impact of cyber incidents and consistently offer new solutions like RecoveryAgent to help our customers be more confident in their cyber readiness and recovery." RecoveryAgent integrates automation of typically time-consuming recovery tasks, including vulnerability and malware scanning as well as data classification, into structured blueprints. The solution also automates forensic investigation, system configuration hardening, and patching when conducting recovery on virtual machines within RecoveryAgent. These functions are backed by Cohesity's integration with security vendors in the Data Security Alliance, which aims to improve agility and productivity for security teams. Additional enhancements to Cohesity's clean room solution are included in RecoveryAgent, which are designed to expedite and streamline activation during recovery exercises. Stéphane Colin, Chief Technology Officer at AntemetA, commented on their experience: "AntemetA has a complex technology infrastructure, and as a result, we need solutions developed with extensive field experience to enable us to be as effective as possible, especially as we are exposed to increasing amount of cyber risks. This is only possible with trusted partners who take time to understand our unique complexity and work with us to ensure our data can be recovered with confidence and our services guarantee the highest level of resilience, whatever cyber challenges we face. We have a longstanding partnership with Cohesity because it continues to develop solutions like RecoveryAgent, which help us deliver more relevant and effective services. That, in turn, has earned us an equally long-lasting trust from our customers." Paul Henaghan, Managing Director for Australia and New Zealand at Cohesity, noted the relevance of cyber recovery today: "Cyber incidents are now a matter of "when", not "if" and Australian businesses need fast and tight cyber recovery processes in place. As the first new solution enabled by integrating the technologies from both Cohesity and Veritas, RecoveryAgent, with its agentic AI capabilities, can help recovery teams to automate every step of these complex cyber recovery processes, making it easier for customers to strengthen their cyber resilience and respond more quickly. By enabling faster, more intelligent, and thoroughly tested recovery processes, we're helping our customers to stay ahead and ensure readiness for any real-world cyber incidents." RecoveryAgent is the initial offering to emerge from the joint development between Cohesity and Veritas following their combination in December 2024. By merging the strengths of NetBackup Recovery Blueprints and Recommended Recovery Points with AI functionalities from DataProtect, RecoveryAgent demonstrates the results of integrating the companies' technology portfolios and an ongoing focus on simplifying customer experiences. The solution is available to select customers in a technology preview phase and is planned for general availability for NetBackup and DataProtect customers in the second half of 2025.

Cohesity expands Google Cloud partnership for cyber resilience
Cohesity has announced an expanded partnership with Google Cloud aimed at improving cyber resilience and data insight capabilities for organisations. The partnership will introduce multiple new capabilities designed to help organisations better prepare for, respond to, and recover from cyber threats, as well as harness more value from their business data. According to industry data cited by Cohesity, enterprises incur an average cost of USD $540,000 per hour in downtime, highlighting a significant need for comprehensive cyber resilience solutions. Through this enhanced collaboration, organisations will be able to leverage advanced artificial intelligence-driven tools and integrated threat intelligence to accelerate the detection and recovery from cyber incidents. New developments will focus on reducing business risk and operational disruptions that often accompany such events. Paul Henaghan, Managing Director of Cohesity Australia and New Zealand, stated: "Australian businesses are facing mounting pressure to strengthen their cyber resilience strategies in an increasingly complex threat landscape. Through our expanded partnership with Google Cloud, organisations can now harness advanced AI-driven capabilities and integrated threat intelligence to detect and recover from cyber-attacks faster than ever. This collaboration delivers the security and speed needed to protect critical data while enabling organisations to gain greater data insights." Among the upcoming features, Cohesity is launching the integration of Google Threat Intelligence within the Cohesity Data Cloud. This integration aims to provide customers with faster detection of threats within their backup data, using intelligence from a network of over 450 threat actors and insights based on more than 1,100 incident investigations annually. The goal is to enhance threat detection and incident response, boost containment, and minimise the impact of potential breaches. The expanded partnership will also see increased cooperation between Cohesity's Cyber Events Response Team (CERT) and Google's Mandiant Incident Response teams. By combining resources, the two organisations aim to offer comprehensive incident response services, facilitating the containment, investigation, and mitigation of cyber attacks from both primary and backup infrastructures and helping to minimise business downtime. Another feature being introduced is the establishment of a Cloud Isolated Recovery Environment (CIRE) in Google Cloud, collaboratively set up and validated by Cohesity customers and Mandiant. This measure is intended to allow rapid and trusted restoration of data and business operations following a cyber incident, aiming to help organisations maintain customer trust and reduce the broader impact of such events. There will also be integration between Cohesity Data Cloud and Google's Security Operations, consolidating Cohesity's data protection features with Google's security management capabilities to promote improved data resilience and an enhanced security posture for joint customers. As organisations continue to amass large volumes of data, the need to efficiently manage, analyse, and extract value from this data grows more pronounced. Cohesity is addressing this through the integration of its Data Cloud platform with Google Agentspace, introducing Cohesity Gaia as an artificial intelligence agent. This functionality will allow enterprises to securely search and analyse data across multiple hosting environments, utilising Google Cloud's Gemini models for advanced insights. The integration is designed to enhance compliance, data security, and the discoverability of trusted data assets. Additionally, Cohesity Gaia will incorporate Google Gemini models to further its AI-powered enterprise search assistant, enabling more advanced data analysis, discovery, and management capabilities for users. Stephen Orban, Vice President of Migrations, ISVs, & Marketplace at Google Cloud, commented: "In today's rapidly evolving threat landscape, organisations need comprehensive solutions that not only protect their data, but also help them derive value from it. Our collaboration with Cohesity will enable customers to strengthen their cyber resilience posture while accelerating their digital transformation journeys." Vikram Kanodia, Vice President of Technology and Cloud Alliances at Cohesity, also addressed the significance of the agreement: "Cyber threats like ransomware continue to plague global organisations, putting their businesses at risk and limiting their ability to focus on new, value-driving activities and services. Cohesity is committed to offering the most comprehensive solution to keep our customers' businesses resilient, protect their critical data, help them quickly recover from incidents, while enabling them to find new insights into their data. Working closely with Google Cloud, we're strengthening that commitment, giving our joint customers the tools to not only protect their business data but transform it into a strategic asset." Integrations with Google Cloud for cyber resilience and data insights are projected to be available by the summer of 2025, while the incident response partnership with Mandiant and integration with Google Security Operations are already available to customers.
