[View datasheet](/resources/datasheet/commvault-backup-recovery-datasheet) --- ## Frequently Asked Questions What is backup and disaster recovery? Backup and disaster recovery is the practice of protecting data and restoring business operations after cyberattacks, outages, or disasters. Commvault® helps organizations do this across hybrid enterprise workloads with unified governance, hardened recovery copies, validation, and orchestrated recovery workflows. Why is modern backup and recovery different? Modern environments span on-premises systems, virtual machines, databases, cloud workloads, endpoints, files, and containers. That makes recovery more than a copy job. Teams need backup and recovery that also validates recoverability, coordinates dependencies, and helps restore trusted operations. How does Commvault help improve recovery readiness? Commvault helps improve readiness by combining policy-driven backup, hardened recovery points, isolated testing, and orchestration. Teams can validate plans against defined RPOs and RTOs, document results, and identify gaps before a disruption becomes a business event. How does Commvault help protect backups from ransomware? Commvault helps protect backup data with immutable storage options, air-gapped patterns, and clean validation workflows. That combination helps reduce the risk of restoring compromised data and supports recovery to a trusted state after a cyber incident. Is this capability only for on-premises environments? No. This capability is especially relevant for hybrid enterprise environments. It supports on-premises, virtualized, and operational cloud workloads through a unified approach, while cloud-native hyperscale recovery scenarios should be directed to CloudRecover. --- Get started ## See backup recovery in action Talk with Commvault® about backup and recovery for hybrid enterprise workloads.
