## Frequently Asked Questions

What is Threatwise ransomware detection?

Threatwise places believable threat sensors across production and backup environments. When an attacker  interacts with a decoy during reconnaissance or lateral movement, the interaction becomes a high-confidence signal that helps SecOps investigate and contain activity faster.

How does Threatwise detect attacks so early?

Threatwise places believable threat sensors across production and backup environments. When an attacker interacts with a decoy during reconnaissance or lateral movement, the interaction becomes a high-confidence signal that helps SecOps investigate and contain activity faster.

What environments can Threatwise protect?

Threatwise is designed to help defend on-premises, cloud, and backup environments by using decoys that mimic real assets across distributed infrastructure. The goal is to surface malicious behavior before critical data and recovery systems are touched.

How does Threatwise fit into Cyber Recovery?

Threatwise strengthens cyber recovery by surfacing active threats early, helping teams respond before backup and recovery processes are pressured. It complements capabilities such as Threat Scan, AirGap, and Cleanroom.

How can teams get started quickly?

Teams can start with a Threatwise trial or engage Commvault for deployment guidance. Threatwise is also supported through Commvault Gold package, so organizations can align early warning, clean recovery, and response planning.
