Backup & Disaster Recovery
Backup & Clean Recovery
Commvault Cloud unifies governed backup and cyber recovery with cleanroom testing, runbooks, and audit-supporting evidence — so teams recover confidently to RPO/RTO under pressure.
When backups get attacked
Three risks teams face
Today’s standard isn’t “do we have copies?” It’s recover confidently with clean recovery, RPO/RTO clarity, and audit-supporting evidence
Backups are a target
Ransomware hunts recovery points and admin access. Copies alone don’t stop reinfection. Cyber recovery needs immutable, air-gapped backups plus validated recovery and cleanroom testing.
Hybrid sprawl breaks governance
Tool sprawl fragments unified governance. Policies drift, blind spots grow, and RPO/RTO becomes inconsistent. A unified control plane reduces recovery surprises across apps, clouds, and endpoints.
Proof pressure is real
Boards and regulators demand evidence, not optimism. Recovery readiness must be testable and reportable—especially with SEC 4-business-day disclosure. Track MTTCR/MTCR with runbooks.
From copies to readiness
Recover confidently, prove readiness
Commvault Cloud unifies backup and cyber recovery—clean recovery, orchestrated recovery, and evidence—to help teams meet impact tolerances and RPO/RTO under attack.
Clean recovery when attacked
Use immutable, air-gapped patterns plus validated recovery points. Run clean recovery workflows with cleanroom testing to reduce reinfection risk.
Unified governance across sprawl
A unified control plane delivers unified governance and broad workload protection. Policy-driven operations align schedules, retention, and access to RPO/RTO.
Audit-supporting proof on demand
Make recovery readiness testable and reportable. Capture evidence from runbooks, tests, results, and changes—then track RPO/RTO and MTTCR/MTCR over time.
Unified control plane, unified governance
Set policy, access, and visibility once across hybrid and multi-cloud. Help reduce tool sprawl that breaks RPO/RTO and recovery readiness.
Immutable, air-gapped recovery points
Use immutable, air-gapped patterns to help protect recovery points from tampering and credential abuse—so recovery remains possible when backups are targeted.
Cleanroom testing in isolation
Run cleanroom testing to validate recovery without reintroducing threats. Help prove what’s clean before bringing data and apps back to production.
Threat-informed recovery decisioning
Align recovery choices to threat context and validated recovery points. Help reduce reinfection risk and limit unnecessary rollback during incident response.
Orchestrated recovery with runbooks
Use runbooks to coordinate multi-system sequencing under pressure. Help recover critical services first, align to impact tolerances, and reduce human error.
Audit-supporting evidence of readiness
Capture evidence from tests, results, and changes. Track RPO/RTO and MTTCR/MTCR over time for audit-supporting reporting and resilience posture.

Organizations that recover with confidence
The Challenge
A fragmented data management environment slowed operations and drove high support costs — creating risk for an events business that cannot afford downtime.
The Solution
Unified data management with Commvault Cloud reduced tool sprawl, automated protection policies, and strengthened the disaster recovery mechanism across the hybrid environment.
reduction in data management time
reduction in support services costs
The Challenge
Protecting 1.6 PB of largely unstructured, long-lived engineering data across on-premises and cloud environments — including Microsoft 365 and Azure — with minimal IT overhead.
The Solution
Commvault Cloud unified backup and recovery for on-premises, cloud, and SaaS workloads on a single platform – reducing tool sprawl and delivering consistent RPO/RTO across environments.
reduction in backup management time
deduplication rate — with 4X cost savings
The Challenge
Consolidating multiple inherited backup tools and adding SaaS protection for Microsoft 365 — while keeping data encrypted, sovereign, and available for a growing digital product business.
The Solution
Commvault Cloud unified on-premises backup with Backup & Recovery for Microsoft 365, automating protection across 500 TB of VMs, 2,000 mailboxes, and 6,100 SharePoint sites.
reduction in time spent managing backups
hardware cost reduction per year
Get started
Choose a low-lift path to clean recovery and provable recovery readiness
Baseline RPO/RTO posture
Inventory priority workloads, map impact tolerances, and set workload-specific RPO/RTO targets—so recovery planning starts with minimum viability, not guesswork.
Harden and validate recovery
Protect recovery points with immutable, air-gapped patterns, then use cleanroom testing and validated recovery to confirm what’s safe to help restore during cyber recovery.
Operationalize runbooks and evidence
Build orchestrated recovery runbooks on a unified control plane, and track audit-supporting evidence over time—RPO/RTO attainment plus MTTCR/MTCR—to strengthen resilience posture.
Deployment timeline
Move faster to governed data protection—with recovery testing and audit-supporting evidence.
Assess scope and priorities
Inventory priority workloads, map impact tolerances, and confirm RPO/RTO targets plus access governance for minimum viability.
Configure unified protection policies
Set up the unified control plane, RBAC, encryption, retention, and immutable, air-gapped patterns across hybrid workloads.
Run cleanroom testing cycles
Execute parallel testing with cleanroom testing, validated recovery, and runbooks to prove clean recovery paths and capture evidence.
Go live and optimize
Expand coverage by tier, operationalize orchestrated recovery, and publish audit-supporting reporting for recovery readiness, RPO/RTO, and MTTCR/MTCR tracking.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does BDR cover?
Commvault Cloud unifies protection across VMs, Kubernetes, databases, apps, endpoints, and files/objects in hybrid and multi-cloud. Policies map to RPO/RTO, unified governance, and workload portability—supporting recovery readiness from one unified control plane.
Why not native cloud tools?
Hyperscaler-native tools typically focus on one platform. Commvault Cloud extends consistent policy control, visibility, and recoverability across clouds and on-prem—reducing tool sprawl and recovery surprises while supporting orchestrated recovery, cleanroom testing, and validated recovery.
How do you support ransomware?
Commvault Cloud addresses ransomware with immutable, air-gapped patterns that help protect recovery points from tampering. Cleanroom Recovery validates what’s safe to restore, while runbooks coordinate system sequencing — to help teams recover confidently with clean recovery and reduced reinfection risk.
What evidence supports audits?
Commvault Cloud validates recovery readiness through audit-ready reporting that documents what was tested, when it was tested, the outcomes, and any operational changes over time tat us designed to be audit-ready. By tracking RPO/RTO achievement alongside MTTCR and MTCR trends, organizations can use this operation data to help demonstrate a measurable resilience posture to executives, regulators, and auditors—grounded in operational evidence, not optimism.
How fast is deployment?
Commvault Cloud deployment starts with minimum viability — prioritize workloads, set impact tolerances and RPO/RTO, then apply governed policies in the unified control plane. Cleanroom testing and validated recovery follow, then expand coverage by tier with orchestrated recovery runbooks.
How is it packaged?
Commvault Cloud packaging aligns to what you protect and the outcomes you need — unified data protection for the broadest workload coverage, plus cyber recovery capabilities including immutable and air-gapped designs, Cleanroom Recovery, validated recovery, and runbooks for orchestrated recovery and evidence.
