Operational Resilience

The situation has changed. Have your recovery plans?

The geopolitical environment has shifted quickly. For many organizations, what started as a headline has become an operational question. This hub gives you the questions to ask, a practical checklist, and direct access to your account team.

Five questions worth walking through right now

These are coming up most in customer conversations — whether you’re reassessing regional exposure or stress-testing your recovery posture.

01 Is our data protected if regional infrastructure is compromised?

Do you have secure, isolated copies of critical data — M365, enterprise workloads, identity systems, on-prem environments — stored outside this geography? Air-gapped protection helps you move quickly while avoiding data sovereignty issues.

02 Do we have a secondary site ready to absorb our full environment?

Not just data — compute, networking, configurations, and application dependencies. Cross-region recovery capability is being actively evaluated across the region right now.

03 How exposed are our identity systems?

Identity infrastructure is often the first target in a sophisticated attack. Does your protection plan treat Active Directory and Entra ID as separately recoverable assets, independent from the systems they authenticate?

04 What is our minimum viable recovery strategy?

Which systems must be online first, and in what order? Have you defined the threshold — and has it been stress-tested against a realistic scenario, not just a theoretical one?

05 How quickly can we realistically recover?

Not files — your full stack. If you haven’t validated recovery in a clean, isolated environment recently, now is a good moment. Recovery that hasn’t been tested is a plan in name only.

Where we can strengthen your posture

Most of this you can work through with your existing configuration. For some areas, there are capabilities you may not have enabled yet — your CSM can tell you which apply to your account.

Protect data outside your region

Secure, isolated copies of M365, enterprise workloads, identity systems, and on-prem environments — stored outside the affected geography, with zero egress charges.

Explore Commvault AirGap

Rebuild your full environment, not just your files

Continuous point-in-time snapshots with full dependency mapping across AWS, Azure, and GCP. Recover compute, networking, and configurations in a secondary region.

Explore Cloud Rewind

Test your recovery plan before you need it

On-demand, cloud-isolated recovery environments for validation and forensic analysis — without dedicated infrastructure. Works for VMs, file systems, and Active Directory.

Explore Commvault Cleanroom

See threats before they detonate

Decoy sensors across production and backup environments that detect zero-day attacks, lateral movement, and advanced threats in real time — before encryption or data loss.

Explore Threatwise

Define and validate your minimum viable recovery

Expert-led services to set your recovery threshold, stress-test your continuity plan against real scenarios, and confirm your assumptions hold — before a crisis forces the question.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my organization is at risk?

If your organization has workloads, applications, or data hosted in UAE, Bahrain, or Israel cloud regions — or depends on services in those geographies — you should be evaluating your resilience posture. The five questions above are a good starting point, and your Commvault account team can help you conduct a thorough assessment.

Can Commvault help me migrate data out of an affected region?

Yes. Cloud Rewind enables rapid cross-region data mobility with full environment rebuild capability. Air Gap Protect ensures isolated copies are already stored outside the affected geography, making migration faster and more controlled.

What data sovereignty issues should I be aware of?

Moving data across borders may trigger regulatory requirements depending on your industry and jurisdiction. We recommend consulting your legal team to determine which workloads are subject to sovereignty rules. Your Commvault account team can then help design a protection architecture that supports those requirements.

I need help now — can I speak with someone immediately?

Yes. Reach out directly to your Commvault account executive or customer success manager — they’re available now. Or use the ‘Talk to your account team’ button at the top of this page and we’ll connect you with the right person promptly.

Are these solutions applicable outside the Middle East?

Absolutely. While this hub was created in response to regional instability, the resilience challenges it addresses — cross-region coverage, isolated protection, tested recovery, and threat readiness — apply to any organization whose infrastructure could face disruption.
