Another first: Cohesity receives Nutanix Database Service (NDB) protection certification

Enterprises today face unprecedented challenges in managing and securing their critical database workloads. A survey in our 2024 Global Cyber Resilience Report found that 67% of global organizations were victims of a cyberattack last year. Of which only 2% recovered and restored their business under 24 hours. Protecting, securing, and recovering this data is vital to continued business success.

Today, Cohesity proudly announces that we’re the first vendor to receive Nutanix Database Service (NDB) protection certification. This certificate ensures your critical NDB is safe, secure, and recoverable.
