Commvault Launches Automated Active Directory Recovery Solution

Commvault has launched its Cloud Backup & Recovery for Active Directory Enterprise Edition, which automates the recovery of Active Directory (AD) forests, a critical component for enterprise IT that manages authentication for over 610 million users worldwide. This new feature addresses the complexities and time-consuming processes traditionally involved in recovering AD, which is often a prime target for cyberattacks. Commvault's solution offers automated runbooks for rapid recovery, enabling IT teams to restore AD functionalities swiftly, thereby minimizing operational disruptions. The Five Eyes intelligence alliance recently warned of persistent cyber threats aimed at AD, highlighting the importance of robust security measures. By streamlining recovery processes, Commvault aims to enhance cyber resilience in organizations, making them better equipped to handle potential disruptions. The offering is expected to significantly reduce recovery times and mitigate the impact of cyber incidents on business operations.
