Cohesity expands partnership with CrowdStrike

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Cohesity has announced an expanded strategic partnership with CrowdStrike to strengthen threat detection and response.

Cohesity said that this partnership combines their robust data protection capabilities with CrowdStrike's world-class threat intelligence feeds, setting a new standard for comprehensive cybersecurity in backup and recovery solutions.

According to CrowdStrike’s 2024 Global Threat Report, adversaries have shifted to more effective tactics, such as credential harvesting and exploiting vulnerabilities, bypassing legacy defenses while using AI and other advanced technologies to rapidly evolve their techniques. With the integration between Cohesity Data Cloud and CrowdStrike Falcon Adversary Intelligence, the partnership is leveling the playing field against sophisticated cyber threats.

“Elevating your organization’s threat detection and response is crucial in today’s threat environment, especially with AI at the disposal of cyber adversaries,” said Craig Martell, Chief Technology Officer, Cohesity. “Secondary data estates offer a perfect opportunity for minimizing attackers’ advantages and, together with CrowdStrike, our customers can enhance their threat hunting and response and automate defenses across their security stack.”

Cohesity’s data protection solution, with CrowdStrike’s threat intel feeds, tracks over 250 adversaries and incorporates indicators of compromise (IOCs). It enables mutual customers to identify the latest threats in their backup copies with higher fidelity and accuracy.

“Our continued partnership with Cohesity and latest joint efforts reflect our shared commitment to cyber resilience,” said Daniel Bernard, chief business officer, CrowdStrike. “To stay ahead, enterprises benefit from streamlining threat intelligence and response efforts while also harnessing their vast secondary data to gain security insights. This integration provides the technology and intelligence they need to reduce risk.”
