Druva has unveiled new capabilities aimed at enhancing the investigation and remediation of cyber threats for its customers. These include the new Threat Hunting capability, which allows IT and security teams to search their global data footprint for indicators of compromise (IOCs). Additionally, Druva is expanding the global availability of its Managed Data Detection and Response (Managed DDR) service. This managed service leverages technology and human expertise to proactively monitor customer backups, ensuring faster detection and response to threats.
Traditional security tools often focus on perimeter and production environments, leaving gaps in data visibility. Druva addresses this by providing comprehensive insights across incident response workflows, complementing existing security strategies. This approach allows customers to accelerate incident response, reduce downtime, and prevent data loss. The company’s 100% SaaS solution consolidates and contextualizes data across all workloads, enhancing cyber resilience.
The new Threat Hunting capability is designed to quickly identify the gestation, timeline, and impact of threats within the data environment. It provides IT and security teams with contextual data insights to understand, remediate, and recover from incidents. Benefits include faster response times through detailed logs of data changes and centralized threat hunting powered by rich metadata. This helps teams identify and remediate IOCs and ensures cleaner recovery by scanning multiple backups to find the most recent clean versions of files.
Druva’s Managed DDR service offers extensive experience and operational oversight to protect and recover from threats targeting backup environments. It provides 24x7x365 monitoring, expert analysis, and pre-built response runbooks to safeguard data. The service also includes automatic lockdown of backups and expedited support during cyber recovery. Available at no additional charge, Managed DDR gives businesses confidence in their incident response workflows with access to a single source of truth and expert assistance in remediation and recovery.
