Commvault redefines cyber recovery and enterprise resilience with major Cloud Unity Platform Release

Commvault unveiled the Cloud Unity Platform Release — a landmark update unifying cyber recovery, data security, and identity resilience through AI-driven automation, scalability, and end-to-end protection for hybrid and cloud-first enterprises.

Commvault introduces AI-driven advancements for clean and complete cyber recovery

At its New York Summit 2025, Commvault announced a series of transformative innovations under its Cloud Unity Platform Release, marking one of the company’s most significant updates to date. The enhancements aim to redefine how organizations recover cleanly, completely, and automatically from cyber incidents, leveraging artificial intelligence and integrated automation.

Citing a Sophos report that found 94% of ransomware attacks attempt to compromise backup storage, Commvault said the new platform directly addresses this vulnerability. The upgraded Threat Scan feature now uses AI to identify, analyze, and quarantine suspicious files, detect newly encrypted data, and search for indicators of compromise (IoCs).

A key highlight, Synthetic Recovery, introduces patent-pending, AI-enabled technology that automatically detects and surgically removes threats during recovery while preserving clean data. Additionally, new runbook automation capabilities within Commvault’s Cleanroom Recovery offering allow enterprises to accelerate restoration processes with precision. Together, these features establish a modern, end-to-end cyber recovery workflow.

Unifying data security, cyber recovery, and identity resilience

The Commvault Cloud Unity Platform represents a unified approach to enterprise resilience, integrating data protection, cyber recovery, and identity management across cloud, SaaS, on-premises, and hybrid environments. The AI-enabled version introduces features such as automated discovery, classification, protection policy recommendations, and active monitoring to help organizations manage growing data volumes and distributed environments more securely.

Commvault also expanded its Identity Resilience portfolio, allowing customers to detect, log, and reverse malicious changes in Active Directory (AD). These enhancements enable teams to test recovery plans in isolated cleanroom environments without disrupting live systems, ensuring faster and more reliable AD forest recovery during crises.

Setting a new standard for cloud-native data protection

Designed for cloud-first enterprises, the latest Commvault release focuses on simplicity, scalability, and cost optimization. The re-engineered interface centralizes resilience operations across multi-cloud environments, offering protection for 200+ cloud services in 160+ regions.
