Varonis Partnership With Pure Storage

Varonis Systems, Inc. announced a new partnership with Pure Storage, Inc.

As the first data security company to natively integrate with Pure Storage, Varonis enables customers to proactively secure their sensitive data, detect threats, and comply with evolving data and AI privacy rules.

Pure Storage enhances cyber resilience with immutable snapshots that allow rapid recovery after a cyber incident. Together, the 2 companies deliver a data security and cyber resilience solution that helps prevent data breaches and provides rapid recovery in the event of a disaster.

By partnering, Varonis’ AI-powered platform enables Pure Storage customers to automatically:

• Discover and classify sensitive data. Varonis scans data in Pure Storage FlashArray and FlashBlade systems in real time, matching classification results with identities, permissions, and activity to identify and fix exposed or at-risk data.

• Reduce data exposure. Varonis maps complex permissions, such as nested groups and inheritance, right-sizes access, and automatically fixes excessive permissions, like removing over-privileged access.

• Detect and stop threats. Varonis uses AI and ML to analyze user behavior to detect threats, suspicious activity, and malicious insiders. With Varonis Managed Data Detection and Response (MDDR), Pure Storage customers can extend their teams with a 24x7x365 incident response SLA.

“Ensuring the security of data — and the data powering AI — is challenging and critical,” said David Bass, EVP engineering and CTO, Varonis . “More and more customers rely on Pure Storage to harness the full potential of their AI data, from ingestion to inference. Customers love Pure Storage, and we are thrilled to partner to ensure that they can innovate with AI securely.”

“In a world where ransomware risk continues to rise, ensuring data security and resilience is more critical than ever,” said Dan Kogan, VP, enterprise growth and solutions, Pure Storage . “With this partnership, Pure Storage and Varonis are empowering organizations to proactively secure critical and sensitive data, detect threats, and recover rapidly from cyber incidents. By combining Pure Storage’s layered resilience approach and indelible snapshots with Varonis’ intelligent data security, customers can confidently protect their unstructured data, mitigate risk, and maintain uninterrupted operations.”

Both companies have been recognized as industry leaders. Pure Storage is a leader in the 2024 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Primary Storage Platforms. Varonis is a leader and a customer favorite in The Forrester Wave: Data Security Platforms, Q1 2025.
