Rubrik And Rackspace Partner For Enhance Cloud Cyber Resilience
Rubrik and Rackspace Technology have announced Rackspace Cyber Recovery Service – a new managed service for customers operating in public cloud. By combining Rubrik's orchestrated data protection and cyber recovery solutions with Rackspace's DevOps principles and managed services, enterprises can simplify and accelerate recovery from ransomware attacks. Automated workflows deliver clean data and workloads through immutable backups, zero-trust architecture and Infrastructure as Code. With Rackspace Cyber Recovery Service, critical business workloads running in public clouds can be restored in hours, helping enterprises significantly strengthen their cyber resilience. Why does this matter? Organizations running key workloads in public clouds face growing challenges when responding to cyber attacks – from limited visibility and inconsistent backup policies to slow recovery times and lack of automation to rebuild at scale. At the same time, IT leaders are grappling with increasingly complex and distributed cloud environments, making it difficult to maintain consistency, ensure visibility and execute reliable recovery. Recently, Rubrik Zero Labs revealed that 90% of global IT and security executives reported cyber attacks in the last year. In the event of major disruptions – such as ransomware attacks – many enterprises struggle to restore critical workloads quickly due to fragmented tooling, manual processes, untrusted data and inadequate automation. 'Enterprises can no longer rely on traditional recovery methods in a cloud-first, threat-intensified world,' said DK Sinha, President for Public Cloud at Rackspace Technology. 'To ensure recoverability in the public cloud, they must adopt a new approach that leverages cloud native tools, modern DevOps methodologies and trusted expertise. Through our partnership with Rubrik, Rackspace Cyber Recovery Service sets a new standard for cyber resilience of public cloud workloads.' Rackspace Cyber Recovery Service Extends Fast and Confident Cyber Resilience to Public Cloud Rackspace Cyber Recovery Service applies Infrastructure as Code and platform engineering principles to cyber recovery, enabling restoration of critical workloads across multi-cloud environments. The journey begins with a professional services-led transformation, where Rackspace experts modernize recovery architectures and codify resilient workflows tailored to each environment. These capabilities are then transitioned into a 'Day 2' fully managed service, ensuring continuous validation, optimization and operational readiness. By orchestrating Recovery as Code, the solution delivers rapid, repeatable and auditable workflows aligned with modern DevOps practices. Paired with Rubrik's immutable architecture and AI-driven threat detection and containment, it ensures clean data recovery into secure landing zones with minimal operational disruption. 'Amidst the evolving complexities of multiple cloud environments, proactive cyber resilience is not a luxury but a necessity. Together, Rackspace and Rubrik offer a differentiated, engineering-led approach to cyber resilience,' said Ghazal Asif, Vice President of Global Channels and Alliances at Rubrik. 'Specifically designed for complex, distributed cloud environments, our companies are at the forefront of safeguarding organizations against the rising tide of ransomware attacks in the realm of cloud and SaaS platforms.'

Rubrik & Rackspace launch managed cyber recovery for clouds
Rubrik and Rackspace Technology have introduced the Rackspace Cyber Recovery Service to support enterprises' ability to recover quickly from ransomware attacks in public cloud environments. The managed service, which brings together Rubrik's data protection and recovery capabilities with Rackspace's DevOps expertise, is positioned to simplify the process of restoring critical business workloads in public clouds within hours after an incident. The announcement focuses on the increasing risks faced by organisations operating key workloads in public clouds, referencing the findings from Rubrik Zero Labs that 90% of global IT and security executives experienced cyber attacks within the past year. Organisations are said to face challenges such as limited visibility, inconsistent backup policies, slow recovery times, and fragmented tooling, particularly as their cloud environments grow more complex and distributed. DK Sinha, President for Public Cloud at Rackspace Technology, commented: "Enterprises can no longer rely on traditional recovery methods in a cloud-first, threat-intensified world. To ensure recoverability in the public cloud, they must adopt a new approach that leverages cloud native tools, modern DevOps methodologies and trusted expertise. Through our partnership with Rubrik, Rackspace Cyber Recovery Service sets a new standard for cyber resilience of public cloud workloads." The Rackspace Cyber Recovery Service uses principles such as Infrastructure as Code and platform engineering to manage the restoration of workloads across multiple cloud providers. The process begins with a professional services-led consultation, during which Rackspace experts work with customers to modernise their recovery architecture and codify specific workflows tailored to their environment. This is then transitioned into a fully managed service, which includes ongoing validation, optimisation and operational monitoring. The service enables what is termed Recovery as Code—providing rapid, repeatable and auditable recovery workflows that align with modern DevOps practices. By combining Rubrik's immutable data architecture and AI-driven threat detection, the service ensures the recovery of clean data into secure environments, while minimising operational disruption. Highlighting the partnership, Ghazal Asif, Vice President of Global Channels and Alliances at Rubrik, said: "Amidst the evolving complexities of multiple cloud environments, proactive cyber resilience is not a luxury but a necessity. Together, Rackspace and Rubrik offer a differentiated, engineering-led approach to cyber resilience. Specifically designed for complex, distributed cloud environments, our companies are at the forefront of safeguarding organisations against the rising tide of ransomware attacks in the realm of cloud and SaaS platforms." Features of the Rackspace Cyber Recovery Service include proactive protection through continuous anomaly detection and threat monitoring, expert management of backup configuration and policies, cloud infrastructure management, and improved regulatory compliance through detailed reporting. The service also offers advisory and professional services covering everything from regulatory alignment to the deployment of automated workflows for recovery. According to the companies, the fully managed and automated approach is intended to address key shortfalls in traditional recovery methods, particularly the time it takes to restore business-critical workloads and the dependence on manual processes that can delay recovery and increase risk. The strategic partnership intends to deliver recovery services that allow businesses to better align with their IT and regulatory requirements, notably through the use of cloud-native tools and automated workflows for consistent backup and efficient data restoration. The launch of Rackspace Cyber Recovery Service comes against a background of increasing threats to public cloud hosted workloads, with organisations under pressure to ensure their recovery capabilities are up to date and resilient.
