Elevate Your Cyber Resilience with Commvault Cloud Enhancements

Discover what’s new in Commvault’s February 2025 release.

Our latest Commvault® Cloud software and SaaS releases provide new features and capabilities to help you elevate your cyber resilience and data protection strategy by making protecting and managing your data easier and faster. It’s designed to help you secure and recover hybrid cloud data against emerging data loss threats and recover quickly in the event of an incident or cyberattack.

Among the newest features now available as part of this release:

CrowdStrike Integration

Your security teams need to act fast. With ransomware attacks on the rise, companies must enhance their visibility to detect and address threats early.

Commvault helps you strengthen your cyber defenses by integrating CrowdStrike Falcon with Commvault Cloud. With CrowdStrike data integrated into the Commvault dashboard, your security team can quickly identify and respond to threats. This streamlined visibility makes it easier to protect backup assets, secure sensitive data, and take proactive recovery actions.

Air Gap Protect Enhancements

Ransomware detection and protection are crucial. As customers increasingly use Air Gap Protect, they seek broader functionality and consistent performance across all storage tiers.

We’ve enhanced Air Gap Protect with features like versatile tiering for both primary and secondary data, guardrails for data recovery and retention, and threat scanning for cloud and on-prem environments. This helps customers optimize storage costs while maintaining robust protection.

HyperScale Edge

Companies need to protect data and apps at remote and branch locations just as effectively as they do for on-premises and cloud deployments.

HyperScale Edge offers a software image that can be installed on a reference architecture, providing data protection at remote sites, all managed through a centralized control plane. Youradmins gain flexibility and visibility by choosing the right hardware for installing the HS Edge software image, managing and protecting up to 200TB of data for retail locations, factory floors, IoT, and more. Plus, with its pre-hardened and pre-configured Linux-based OS, the software image allows for rapid deployment and easy maintenance.

Cloud Rewind

With 70% of cloud resources typically left unprotected, achieving cyber resilience can be a daunting task. Organizations are eager to bolster protection across all assets and be ready to bounce back from threats.

Cloud Rewind offers a powerful way to quickly restore critical data, cloud applications, and configurations to a clean state. It allows users to swiftly rebuild their cloud environments to a known safe state after cyber incidents, cutting recovery time from weeks to minutes. This rapid recovery capability is crucial for maintaining cyber resilience.

Clumio for Amazon S3

With the rise of modern apps and AI, Amazon S3 has seen explosive growth, making it a prime target for attacks. Restoring billions of objects from backup can be painfully slow, leading to extended downtime.

Clumio Backtrack offers a game-changing solution by allowing rapid rollbacks of Amazon S3 objects to a specific version at any point in time. This means enhanced cyber resilience against mistakes and attacks, and the ability to restore billions of objects in minutes using S3 Versioning and serverless technology. Plus, it optimizes AWS spend by eliminating the need for extra copies of S3 buckets.

Note: Clumio for Amazon S3 is also available on AWS Marketplace.

Cleanroom Recovery for AWS

Customers using AWS for their cloud deployments want to conduct recovery exercises within the same environment for optimal efficiency.

Commvault has extended Cleanroom Recovery to AWS, allowing you to recover workloads directly into AWS. This expansion means you can perform recovery testing in an environment that mirrors their production setup, enhancing consistency. Plus, with broader cloud platform support, your business gains the flexibility to craft a recovery strategy tailored to your needs.

Auto-scaling for Amazon EC2 Restore

AWS users need Commvault auto-scaling for replication, recovery, and indexing to minimize the number of long-lived Commvault Access Nodes they must manage in their AWS environment. Commvault Cloud now dynamically scales Amazon EC2 compute during restore, replication, and migration activities, terminating them afterward to keep cyber resilience costs low.


You can simplify maintenance by reducing the number of long-lived Commvault Access Nodes in your AWS environment and save on costs by leveraging elastic EC2 compute only when necessary.

Backup & Recovery for Google Workspace

SaaS app security risks like accidental deletion, corruption, and malicious attacks can disrupt productivity. Surprisingly, only 13% of businesses fully grasp their role in protecting data.

Commvault is stepping up by expanding SaaS app protection to Google Workspace, covering Gmail, Google Drive, and Shared Drive data. This means your critical Google Workspace data can stay safe and recoverable from data loss threats.

Your business can keep moving forward with data that’s available and quickly recoverable. Plus, maintain service-level agreement compliance with extended retention and bundled Google Cloud Storage, all managed through a single, unified solution for Google Workspace and other SaaS, hybrid, and cloud-native workloads.

Active Directory Forest Recovery

When Active Directory (AD) goes offline, recovering the forest can be a daunting, multi-step process that must be executed perfectly. Without automation, there’s a real risk of restoring AD in an unusable state, causing further business disruption.

Commvault’s solution simplifies this with rapid recovery from schema corruption and ransomware attacks. By automating the full forest recovery process, you can plan and test in advance, reducing downtime and boosting cyber resilience. This means you can have peace of mind knowing your AD forest can be restored to a healthy state quickly and efficiently.

Nutanix AHV Source VMs

Do you face the challenge of protecting diverse and complex operating environments? Do you need reliable solutions to manage these environments effectively? That’s where Cleanroom Recovery comes in. Now supporting Nutanix VMs, it helps you respond swiftly to security threats and streamline recovery validation.

Why does this matter? It provides comprehensive coverage for complex environments, leading to more complete recoveries. Plus, with support for more VMs and workloads, businesses can get back up and running quickly, enhancing their cyber resilience and keeping operations smooth.

Palo Alto Networks XSOAR Integration

Security teams often rely on SIEM/SOAR platforms like Palo Alto Networks XSOAR for threat detection and response, but the lack of integration with recovery solutions means they face time-consuming manual recovery efforts, delaying their response to active threats.

Commvault Cloud Cleanroom Recovery integrates seamlessly with Palo Alto Networks XSOAR, allowing teams to manage recovery efforts directly within the XSOAR platform. This integration speeds up recovery times with automated workflows, reduces manual tasks so teams can focus on threat analysis, and centralizes management for better collaboration and faster incident response.
