SAN JOSE, Calif. — Cohesity has announced its expansion of the Cohesity Cyber Event Response Team (CERT) service to include partnerships with leading incident response (IR) vendors.

Cohesity stated that its CERT team has years of specialized incident response expertise and has helped numerous customers respond and recover quickly from high-stakes security events since its formation in 2021. By partnering with leading IR vendors such as Palo Alto Networks Unit 42, Arctic Wolf, Sophos, Fenix24, and Semperis, Cohesity said its CERT augments the traditional IR process, infusing rich data and backup and recovery expertise.

Using native platform capabilities, Cohesity CERT can share a consolidated set of customer-approved operational data with its IR partners, including logs, reports, inventories, and more.

We’re doubling our commitment to our customers by ensuring they have the expertise and tools to navigate and recover from cyber crises effectively.
