Commvault boosts cyber resilience with expanded CrowdStrike partnership

The Commvault-CrowdStrike partnership covers the entire spectrum of cyber threats—before, during, and after an attack—enabling organizations to reduce downtime and recover operations more confidently

Commvault has deepened its partnership with cybersecurity leader CrowdStrike to offer enhanced cyber recovery and incident response services. This collaboration provides organizations with streamlined access to CrowdStrike’s expert incident response capabilities, reinforced by Commvault’s proven data recovery strengths—ensuring faster recovery and stronger preparedness against cyber threats.

The expanded alliance aims to deliver a unified approach to cyber resilience by combining proactive readiness, rapid incident response, and comprehensive recovery solutions. It is especially critical in today’s landscape, where ransomware strikes occur every 14 seconds and average recovery spans over three weeks.

As businesses increasingly face complex and frequent cyberattacks, IT and security teams are turning to trusted partnerships that bring together best-in-class expertise. The Commvault-CrowdStrike collaboration addresses the full lifecycle of cyber threats—before, during, and after an attack—helping organizations minimize downtime and return to normal operations with greater confidence.

“Today’s threat landscape demands more than just security – it requires resilience,” said Alan Atkinson, Chief Partner Officer at Commvault. “Our expanded partnership with CrowdStrike brings together exceptional incident response capabilities from CrowdStrike and leading data recovery and resilience solutions from Commvault to help joint customers identify and quickly address cyber incidents and recover swiftly and effectively.”

“Cyber resilience isn’t just about recovery, it’s about being ready at every stage of an attack,” said Daniel Bernard, Chief Business Officer at CrowdStrike. “Our expanded partnership with Commvault brings together industry-leading threat intelligence, incident response expertise, and robust recovery capabilities to help organizations identify risks faster, recover smarter, and strengthen their overall security posture. In an AI-accelerated world of relentless and sophisticated threats, security and IT teams need to operate as one, and this collaboration helps make that possible.”
