Solution Brief
Unify Cloud-Native, Hybrid, and On-Premises Workloads
A single AI-enabled platform built to discover, classify, govern, and unify cloud-native, hybrid, and on-premises workloads – helping to optimize costs and strengthen resilience across environments.
What challenges do customers experience in complex environments?
Hybrid spawl raises cyber risk
Fragmented data protection strategies rely on multiple tools, creating gaps and risk as organizations secure diverse workloads across cloud-native, hybrid, and multi-cloud environments.
Ransomware demands clean rebuild
Backups are targeted. Clean recovery has to be fast, verified, and secure—because ransomware attacks surged 126% YoY in Q1 2025 (avg 1,925 weekly).
Hybrid Workloads Demand Centralized Backup
Hybrid environments require workload-aware backup that centralizes protection across on-prem and cloud, reducing duplication and helping establish consistent data management across primary and secondary sites.
Unified AI-enabled resilience for modern enterprises
Unify protection. Reduce risk.
Discover and unify hybrid workloads under one secure control plane, with visibility, cost control, and recoveries that minimize downtime after disruption.
Unify tools across hybrid
Replace tool sprawl with a unified policy engine that governs protection across cloud-native, multi-cloud, on-premises, and edge workloads with consistent security controls.
Clean recovery after attacks
Strengthen cyber recovery with protected copies, snapshots, and cross region and cloud copies to rebuild fast and minimize downtime.
Govern with real visibility
Gain visibility into protected status and costs using AI-enabled cloud data discovery and TCO analysis—then govern policies across accounts, regions, and clouds.
Key Capabilities
Unify protection across your environments
Discover, govern, and unify protection across cloud-native, hybrid, and on-prem workloads—strengthening security, visibility, and cost control while you rebuild fast.
01 Unified policy and UX
Centralized policy engine unifies controls across environments, tightening security posture while improving visibility and simplifying governance at enterprise scale.
02 Multi-workload coverage at scale
Protect cloud-native and hybrid estates: AWS RDS, DynamoDB, Azure SQL; Azure Blob, AWS S3; AWS EC2, Azure VM; AKS, EKS, K8s.
03 Discovery plus TCO analysis
Discover and classify resources, assess protected status, and use TCO analysis to improve cost control while aligning protection to risk and recovery goals.
04 Protected copies and snapshots
Use flexible protection levels, including cloud snapshots and protected copies, to defend recovery points from corruption and support clean recovery workflows.
05 Cross region and cloud copies
Cross region and cross-cloud copies strengthen resilience and support compliance requirements for multi-geo operations.
06 Cloud configuration backup workflows
Backup and restore cloud configurations by assembling resources into recovery workflows, helping teams rebuild key services after a cyber incident

Deployment process
Discover & Connect Fast
Discover and connect cloud-native, hybrid, and on-premises resources. Unify policies, tagging, and visibility to scale protection with cost control.
Discover and tag resources
Inventory cloud-native and hybrid assets, classify with tagging, and connect them under one control plane for fast onboarding and consistent policies.
Unify policy and protection
Apply a centralized policy engine to govern retention and copies across multi-cloud, snapshots, and cross-region and cross-cloud protection for compliance.
Rebuild and Recover
Use Command Center for HyperScale docking and workflows to rebuild cloud resources. Validate recovery plans to minimize downtime and scale operations.
Frequently Asked Questions
What workloads are protected?
Commvault Cloud Threat Detection and Response covers the workloads you protect with Commvault—virtual machines, files, and cloud files/objects—across hybrid environments. It’s designed for enterprise-scale recovery confidently, with threat hunting and incident response built into cyber resilience.
How is this different?
Endpoint/XDR and native cloud tools focus on live telemetry. Commvault adds security insight inside protected backup data, plus Cleanpoint Identification and synthetic recovery. That closes the gap between detection, investigation, and recovering cleanly at massive scale.
How is clean recovery chosen?
Cleanpoint Identification and Cleanpoint Validation pinpoint when data shifts from good to compromised. Synthetic recovery then assembles a composite recovery point across files, VMs, workloads, and times—minimizing data reversion while keeping risk quarantined.
How do quarantine and forensics work?
Suspicious files are automatically quarantined to prevent reinfection. Infected versions remain preserved in protected backups for forensic investigation and incident response, while clean last-known-good versions are recovered to restore operations without reintroducing attacker artifacts.
What about compliance and access?
Security-forward governance with access controls and audit-ready logging, supporting regulated environments. Unified policy helps apply consistent retention, access, and recovery controls across hybrid workloads. Identity signals and change monitoring add incident context, while recovery actions remain traceable – teams can prove what happened, who acted, and what was recovered.
