Cohesity at GITEX Global 2025: Unifying AI and security to drive business success

At GITEX GLOBAL 2025, one theme dominates: the convergence of security and AI. It’s not a coincidence. Today, enterprise organizations know that data is both their greatest driver of innovation and potentially their most vulnerable asset. 
  
Our message for GITEX is clear: your data powers growth, but it must also be defended. That’s why we’re showcasing how Cohesity delivers resilience everywhere by ensuring data is always protected, recoverable, compliant, and available to fuel AI innovation.

The data paradox: Growth driver and attack surface

Recent research highlights a sharp paradox: 78% of businesses now rely on AI and data to drive growth, yet 65% have suffered a data breach with recovery often taking months.

Downtime isn’t just an inconvenience. It’s a direct hit to business operations. A ransomware attack or compliance violation can paralyze operations, drain resources, and divert attention from innovation.

The bottom line? The common denominator in both opportunity and risk is your data. If you depend on it, defending it from compromise and loss should be your top priority.  

Cohesity protects, secures, and provides insights into data

The Cohesity Data Cloud combines data protection, data security, and Gen AI-powered insights in one platform. The Cohesity Data Cloud helps organizations protect over 1,000 data sources, stores the protected data on an efficient and zero trust-based webscale architecture, identify and mitigate threats with comprehensive and industry-leading security services, and enable quick and confident recoveries with intelligent orchestration capabilities. 

The same platform brings backups, cloud data, and application data into a single, indexed source of truth for extracting business value. 

Cohesity Gaia, our conversational generative AI assistant, uses retrieval augmented generation (RAG) to unlock deeper insights from your data. 

New capabilities expected soon include:

New workloads:

• In addition to the 40+ new workloads we announced at our Catalyst 1 event, we will offer first to market support for Nutanix Database Service for PostgreSQL (NDB), and are adding support for Red Hat and S3-compatible storage.

Security enhancements:

• On-premises data vaulting: Our cloud-based cyber vault, Cohesity FortKnox, now supports on-prem deployments to enable organizations with data sovereignty and/or cloud restrictions to store a copy of their data in a highly-secure, air-gapped data vault.
• Threat scanning for cloud workloads: We’re adding enhanced threat scanning capabilities to Cohesity Cloud Protection Services

Enterprise AI enhancements: 

• Search: We’re adding a powerful search interface to Cohesity Gaia that will make it easier for users to quickly scan, filter, and provide accurate and exhaustive list of matches. This search is invaluable for legal discovery, compliance and other use cases that require a complete listing of matched data.
• Multi-languages: Gaia will include multi-language support to empower global teams to search and chat with their enterprise data in the language they’re most comfortable using. 
• Collaboration tools: Gaia will soon be accessible in the collaboration tools you use every day, like Slack and Google Agentspace.
• Data redaction: Gaia will support built-in sensitive data redaction—so personally identifiable information (PII), financial details, and other sensitive information won’t be presented.
• On-premises: Due to high demand from government, financial, and sovereign organizations, we’ve partnered closely with NVIDIA and our hardware partners to provide Gaia for on-premises operation. This version of Gaia can be deployed and used without any outbound network connection, enabling your own “private GPT.”
