Modern cyber resilience. Faster recovery. Less complexity
Cohesity takes a modern approach to cyber resilience: a unified AI and data security platform designed to simplify operations, accelerate recovery, and help organizations stay resilient against modern cyber threats. Cohesity combines backup, recovery, cyber resilience, and data management in a single platform, helping enterprises reduce operational complexity while strengthening security.
That’s why 65% of the Global 500 (and 10/10 of the world’s biggest banks) choose Cohesity to strengthen their cyber resilience.
Cohesity lets you instantly access and recover VMs, databases, and file shares at scale, with no dependence on deployed proxies or agents and no single points of failure.
Cohesity Identity Resilience extends that to your entire Active Directory forest. It automates forest-level recovery in as few as five clicks and rebuilds multiple domain controllers in parallel, cutting AD recovery time by up to 90%, even with no internet connection.
AI-enabled anomaly and threat detection surfaces risks early, so you can bring the business back sooner.
The world’s largest organizations trust Cohesity to secure and manage their enterprise data, across every mission-critical data source and cloud. Built to scale linearly, Cohesity keeps performance consistent as you add capacity; so threat scanning, classification, and recovery keep pace with your data. In real-world testing, Cohesity scanned more than 1 billion files for threats in under a minute. Proven data classification scale of up to 2PB per day, or 1TB per minute (per customer).
Minimize your attack surface with built-in security capabilities (using layered defenses to avoid full compromise in seconds) integrated consistently across the platform: industry-leading threat detection and response with the best threat feeds—including unique threat scanning for Microsoft Exchange Online—identity threat detection and forensics, Cohesity Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) for sensitive-data discovery and classification, AI Security Posture Management (AI-SPM) to govern AI usage, enterprise-grade cyber vaulting with true air-gap, and deep SOC, SIEM, and SOAR integration.
Work smarter with an intuitive UI and rich APIs that span backup, recovery, threat detection, DSPM, identity resilience, and AI governance—integrated and delivered as one platform. Your team manages everything through one consistent experience, saving thousands of hours a year and doing more without adding headcount. Rolling upgrades ensure security and software upgrades result in almost no impact on backup SLAs, without additional administrative load.
Gain answers from your enterprise data with generative AI. Cohesity uses retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and large language models to deliver conversational insights from your data, governed by your existing role-based access controls. And with AI-SPM, you can uncover shadow AI, map who and what can access sensitive data, and keep AI usage within policy.
A leader in all the top analyst reports. Gartner, Forrester, IDC, Omdia, GigaOm, and KuppingerCole recognized Cohesity as an industry-leading vendor in security posture, ransomware protection, unstructured data management, cloud backup, scale-out file storage, and data protection.

Zero-trust by default: layered defenses to avoid full compromise in seconds, anomaly detection, and native immutability, so ransomware can't touch your last clean copy.
Security depends on manual hardening; one misconfiguration exposes backups.
Google Threat Intelligence (with optional Sophos) threat feed and AI anomaly detection built in.
The most exploited backup product in the segment, a frequent target of ransomware attackers seeking to delete backups.
Automated, verified recovery: RecoveryAgent, Digital Jump Bag™, and clean-room orchestration confirm a clean copy before you restore.
Threat detection and DR orchestration are paid add-ons (Veeam ONE, Recovery Orchestrator).
Manual recovery with no verified clean-room workflow.
FortKnox: a Cohesity-managed, air-gapped cyber vault available on-premises.
No vendor-managed on-premises vault; you assemble isolation yourself.
Instant mass recovery: SnapTree™ restores hundreds of VMs or databases at once, with no rehydration.
Instant VM Recovery scales poorly; gated by repository IOPS, staging hardware, proxies, and network bandwidth.
Linear scale: double the nodes, double the throughput, to petabytes.
Scaling adds servers, proxies, repositories, and gateways to manage.
Shared-nothing architecture: upgrades with no downtime, no paused jobs.
Upgrades require downtime and paused jobs.
Backup, recovery, analytics, and protection for every workload in one Helios interface.
20+ components and consoles, each with its own install and interface; NAS, Microsoft 365, and cloud workloads need separate products.
Global policy-based management across edge, core, and cloud.
No centralized security and governance visibility.
Built-in global search and reporting.
Reporting and analytics require add-on tools.
Hyperconverged platform runs threat scanning and Gaia AI analysis directly on backup data; ask natural-language questions of your enterprise data.
A pipe to someone else's storage: once data lands on a separate appliance, Veeam can't run sophisticated threat scanning or AI analysis on it.
Integrated sensitive data discovery: find PII, PCI, and PHI across backups for exposure assessment, compliance, and governed analytics.
No built-in sensitive data classification: you can't tell what was exposed, prove compliance, or safely use backup data for analytics.
Efficient live mount: spin up hundreds of VM or database clones instantly for test/dev, analytics, and forensics.
Inefficient live mount: snapshots bring up only a handful of VMs or databases at a time
Frees staff time through automated operations and minimal patching.
Labor-intensive upkeep: constant patching and upgrades.
Global deduplication and compression cut storage footprint 25–50%, with no separate dedupe appliance.
Efficient dedupe depends on third-party appliances bought and managed separately.
Hyperconverged economics: one system replaces backup software, media servers, proxies, storage targets, and point products.
Disaggregated cost stack: software, Windows servers, proxies, storage, dedupe appliances, and point solutions.
Predictable pay-as-you-grow scaling with one vendor and one support contract.
Instance-based licensing with unpredictable scale economics.

Organizations today need more than backup. They need confidence that they can recover quickly after ransomware attacks, operational disruptions, and unexpected outages.
Cohesity helps organizations move beyond traditional backup by delivering cyber resilience, operational simplicity, and rapid recovery through a unified platform. This approach is why many of the world's largest enterprises trust Cohesity to protect their most critical data.
Consolidate multiple data protection and cyber resilience functions into a single platform.
Strengthen preparedness with immutable backups, recovery workflows, and cyber resilience capabilities.
Reduce infrastructure footprint and simplify ongoing management and operations.
Protect and recover workloads across data centers, cloud environments, SaaS applications, and modern applications from a common platform.

Solutions that we're going to bring in have to add value and we have to have an ROl to really take it to scale.”
“The PoC demonstrated that Cohesity is reliable and easy to use, lowering operational costs. We also like built-in Cohesity security features, including immutable backups, multifactor authentication, role-based access controls, and a quorum requirement to change settings.”
Most backup systems can restore data. The difference is how quickly they can do it. Our Superintendent wanted a 48-hour restoration target, and the existing solution couldn't deliver."
