Commvault Collaborates with CrowdStrike to Enhance Cyber Recovery Integration within SOAR Frameworks

Commvault and CrowdStrike: A New Era of Cyber Recovery Integration

In a significant step towards enhancing cyber resilience, Commvault (NASDAQ: CVLT), a leading name in unified data management solutions, has announced a groundbreaking integration with CrowdStrike. This integration, designed for the Charlotte Agentic SOAR workflows, aims to streamline cyber recovery actions, enabling organizations to respond to cyber incidents efficiently.

The Need for Speed in Cybersecurity

As the cybersecurity landscape becomes increasingly complex, organizations are under constant pressure to detect, investigate, and respond to threats at unprecedented speeds. Traditional tools and workflows often result in bottlenecks, delaying critical responses during incidents. Recognizing this challenge, Commvault's latest integration introduces automation of cyber recovery actions into security workflows.

This new connection facilitates a seamless experience for joint customers of Commvault and CrowdStrike. By embedding Commvault's cyber recovery steps directly into the Charlotte Agentic SOAR workflows, the integration minimizes manual coordination between security and recovery teams, thereby accelerating both investigations and responses to incidents.

Key Features of the Integration

1. Restricting Access: The integration allows organizations to restrict access in Commvault during an active incident. This feature safeguards backup data from unauthorized changes, ensuring the integrity of the recovery process.

2. Preservation of Recovery Options: Another critical capability is the automatic suspension of backup data aging policies. By retaining viable recovery points during active incidents, organizations can ensure that they have access to clean and reliable recovery options.

3. Forensic Investigations: The integration significantly speeds up forensic investigations. By restoring potentially compromised assets into Commvault Cleanroom, investigators can analyze these resources without disrupting ongoing production systems. This capability allows for thorough investigations while maintaining business continuity.
