Available as part of Security Cloud, Cyber Recovery delivers 2 capabilities to help organizations better prepare for attacks and minimize operational downtime. It provides a simple way to test, validate, and document the success of an organization’s cyber recovery plans. It also provides businesses a way to instantly recover the last known clean copy of data into production while performing forensic investigations out-of-band in an isolated recovery environment.

Organizations are struggling to prepare for and respond to increasingly inevitable ransomware attacks and other cyber incidents. According to the inaugural State of Data Security Report from Rubrik Zero Labs, 92% of global IT and security leaders are concerned they are unable to maintain business continuity during an attack. In addition, the report found that 1/3 of boards have little to no confidence in their organization’s ability to recover critical data and business applications in the event of a cyberattack. Organizations today need a simple way to quickly test recovery plans and investigate threats without delaying the restoration of business critical operations.

“It’s essential that we have confidence in our data recovery plan,” said Dan Gallivan, director, IT, Payette, an architecture firm. “With Rubrik, we can now prepare, verify our preparation with auditors, and safely recover in the event of a cyberattack. This peace of mind is critical not just for our IT and Security teams, but the organization as a whole.”

Cyber Recovery empowers IT and security teams to:

Validate whether Cyber Recovery plans will work: It enables customers to test, validate, and document the success of their cyber recovery plans while tracking performance metrics to ensure their organization is prepared to meet recovery SLAs. Customers can test whether their recovery playbook works, including sequence, timing, and failure points. They can download reports about recovery performance on-demand to prove that regular testing of cyber recovery capabilities is taking place.
Clone backup snapshots for faster security testing: It enables organizations to assess cyber readiness faster through the ability to clone snapshots into isolated environments. This allows customers to perform destructive tests more easily, thereby enhancing their organization’s cyber readiness.
Conduct forensic investigations in parallel to recovery: It allows organizations to conduct forensic investigations on infected snapshots in isolated environments while they restore business continuity quickly using a last known good snapshot.

“IT and security teams are faced with increasing pressure to ensure they can recover from a cyberattack, and yet boards and leadership teams lack confidence in their ability to do so,” said Dan Rogers, president. “Rubrik Cyber Recovery can help boost board and leadership confidence by not only enabling organizations to achieve safer, predictable recovery from cyber events, but also enabling IT and Security teams to prove preparedness. These advancements in Rubrik Security Cloud continue to strengthen customers’ defenses in securing their data.”

The company also announced both Ransomware Monitoring and Investigation and Sensitive Data Monitoring and Management will support Microsoft OneDrive and SharePoint, NAS Cloud Direct, and Azure VMs. As a result, organizations can gain more visibility into ransomware impact and sensitive data exposure within high-risk, cloud-based workloads. Rubrik continues to expand its capabilities to more cloud workloads, helping customers protect all of their data across the enterprise, cloud, and SaaS.
