As cyber threats evolve and become more sophisticated, securing Active Directory should be a top priority for every organization. AD holds the keys to an organization's infrastructure. Misconfigurations, user errors, and dormant accounts can be problematic. It’s also becoming a popular vector for ransomware attacks, as bad actors who penetrate AD can elevate privileges and steal, corrupt, or deny access to critical applications and their data. This allows cybercriminals to silently traverse infrastructure, workstations, and applications to establish their foothold in a centralized location to control business assets. Safeguard Microsoft AD and Entra ID data from a single solutionActive Directory (AD) is today's digital fortress – and it's under siege. 90% of today's ransomware attacks are gunning for your AD. Why? Because it's the gateway to your entire digital kingdom. C

When it comes to cyber recovery, a cleanroom, also known as an Isolated Recovery Environment (IRE), is known for providing security and cleanliness. However, a true and proven cleanroom concept goes beyond its physical attributes. It embodies a comprehensive approach to cyber recovery, combining a secure, independent environment with precise planning, established processes, diligent testing, and well-defined procedures.While the technology behind a cleanroom may not have magical qualities, its true strength is its ability to harmonize these diverse elements into a unified and highly efficient system.With cyber threats on a constant rise and impacting not only the largest Fortune 500 companies, it’s critical to introduce the concept of an IRE for organizations of all sizes. At Commvault, we’re at the forefront of this movement with – Commvault Cleanroom Recovery. This solution democratizes cleanrooms, making cyber recovery readiness and resilience readily accessible.
