Cohesity Advanced Threat Protection

Today’s threat response needs more than just backups

Ransomware and malware remain the most punishing cyber risks of 2025: exploited software vulnerabilities ignite 32% of incidents, while malicious email (19%) and phishing (18%) round out the top entry points; when attackers break through, half of all cases still end in data encryption and 28% add data-theft extortion. The mean cost of recovery without the ransom is US $1.53M (sophos 2025). At the same time, the proliferation of zero-day exploits shows how quickly adversaries can outpace signature- based defenses (The Hacker News, Microsoft). With only 54% of victims able to restore from backups and attackers now actively targeting backup data, enterprises must augment perimeter controls with a data-centric layer that continuously scans immutable backup copies for hidden Indicators of Compromise, exposes dormant threats early, and pinpoints clean

Integrated threat defense for your backup data

In a landscape where ransomware and advanced threats relentlessly target corporate data. Cohesity delivers integrated threat defense by fusing backup, security, and recovery into a single solution. Cohesity continuously detects threats, accelerates incident response, and pinpoints clean recovery points across all protected workloads. Powered by Google Threat Intelligence feeds and augmented with bring-your-own CrowdStrike Falcon intelligence, Cohesity surfaces Indicators of Compromise by scanning immutable backup copies, enabling security and IT teams to spot dormant threats early, accelerate triage, and shut down lateral movement. With unified detection, response, and rapid recovery in one platform, Cohesity fortifies cyber resilience, streamlines operations, and lets organizations rebound with confidence. 

Cohesity threat protection unifies threat detection, accelerating incident response, and clean-point recovery on the same Cohesity Data Cloud platform that already backs up and consolidates your data. The feature allows scanning immutable backup snapshots, leaving production workloads untouched while ingesting curated threat-intelligence feeds from Google Threat Intelligence and bring your own CrowdStrike Falcon intelligence to uncover IOCs and infections in secondary data. With support to bring your own YARA rules, Cohesity threat protection becomes a single platform for both proactive and reactive defense. In peacetime, you can continuously scan immutable backups to detect dormant IOCs before they spread. During an incident, you can scan historical snapshots to trace the point of entry and highlight verified, clean recovery points.
