More speed. More security. More workloads: What’s new in Cohesity DataProtect

This year's Cohesity Global Cyber Resilience Report found that 76% of organizations have experienced a material cyberattack, with 87% reporting lost revenue as a result.

Ensuring all data is protected, secured, and quickly recoverable is vital to a business’ success. And that’s why the world’s largest organizations trust Cohesity for their cyber resilience. We help you protect, secure, and gain insights from your data via our AI-powered data security platform, Cohesity Data Cloud.

Today, we’re happy to continue to raise the bar for cyber resilience with our latest Cohesity DataProtect release. Our customers choose DataProtect for its speed (10x faster recoveries), scale (multi-petabyte), security (zero trust architecture), simplicity (modern, SaaS-based user experience), and savings (up to 50% storage costs).

But we’re not stopping. New updates to DataProtect align around three themes critical to business resilience: protection, security, and recovery.

• Protection: New support for modern workloads in the cloud and on-premises helps ensure that all business-critical data is protected and secured.
• Security: Ultrafast hash-based threat scanning and new scanning capabilities for cloud data helps ensure that protected data is clean.
• Recovery: Faster, more confident cyber recovery with Instant Mass Restore and our cyber recovery orchestration tool, Cohesity RecoveryAgent. 

Protection: Cloud without compromise

Enterprises aren’t just “moving to the cloud”—they’re living in a multicloud reality. But all too often, protection of data in this hybrid world consists of multiple tools from different vendors. This approach creates protection gaps that threat actors can exploit, hinders enterprise visibility that’s critical for ensuring compliance, and spawns operational efficiencies that can drive up costs. DataProtect’s support for new modern platforms and workloads across the cloud and on-prem, helps organizations close protection gaps. New support includes:

• AWS: Custom RDS Oracle, Custom RDS SQL, Aurora MySQL, RDS MySQL, RDS MySQL, DocumentDB, DynamoDB, Aurora Postgres, RDS MSSQL, Redshift, RDS Oracle.

Security: Built-in cyber defense

Data security helps ensure data is protected from contamination and stopping threats before they spread. DataProtect continues to lead the way in data security with new innovations including: 

• First and only solution to offer threat scanning for Exchange Online. 
• Hash-based threat scanning, which can scan 30B files in less than a minute with near-zero performance impact. With threats and indicators of compromise (IoC) changing daily, this game-changing capability enables organizations to execute scans as soon as a new threat indicator is received. 
• Advanced threat scanning for cloud VMs to help proactively identify risks.
• Enhanced M365 security, covering Exchange email, Teams, SharePoint, and OneDrive.

Quick and confident recovery

When data is inaccessible due to loss, corruption, or ransomware, every second counts. DataProtect remains focused on delivering quick and confident recovery.

• With DataProtect’s ability to recover 1,000 VMs and many other forms of data near instantly, users, applications, and the business can be up and running very quickly.
• Cohesity RecoveryAgent, an optional service for DataProtect users, simplifies the complex and time-consuming task of recovering from cyber breaches quickly and confidently. Through intelligent automation and user-defined recovery blueprints, organizations are able to adapt the recovery operation to their needs, while the intelligence of RecoveryAgent helps ensure that contaminated data is not restored.
