Resilience Everywhere
A continuing challenge of all organizations across the globe is defending against cyberattacks and ensuring business continuity. Data needs to be secure, and the infrastructure and apps that store, process, and manage it need to be resilient. so that they can focus on innovation and growth rather than fear of disruption.
As an AWS ISV partner, Cohesity solves these problems by helping organizations protect, secure, and recover their AWS data from cyberattacks, and making this data AI-ready for AI applications.
Together, Cohesity and AWS deliver unified cyber resilience on-prem, in the cloud, and at the edge, so your data is secure no matter where it resides.

From Workloads to Agents: Rethinking Cloud Resilience
Session ID: COP204-S Monday, November 30 | 1–2 PM | Cristal 2, Wynn
Under the shared responsibility model, you own the security and recoverability of your entire cloud estate - and that estate now includes AI agents. These agents are becoming core infrastructure, executing actions across interconnected systems at machine speed. Yet most organizations can't recover agent memory, credentials, or configurations any better than they could recover a corrupted server a decade ago. Join us to see how Cohesity's resilience platform extends AWS-native protections to agents and infrastructure alike, so risk doesn't outrun your ability to recover.
