Enhancements across Cohesity Data Cloud and Cohesity Gaia support the company’s broader Enterprise AI Resilience strategy.

Cohesity, the leader in AI-powered data security, has introduced significant enhancements across its data protection and security portfolio, reinforcing its strategy to help enterprises build strong AI resilience. The updates including expanded sovereign cloud partnerships, improved threat detection, and simplified product offerings aim to help organizations better secure data across hybrid and multicloud environments while accelerating AI adoption.

The announcement follows Cohesity’s unveiling of its Enterprise AI Resilience strategy and the introduction of Cohesity Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) powered by Cyera. Enhancements to Cohesity Gaia, the company’s AI-driven insights engine, further unify protection, security, and intelligence within a single platform.

“Organizations in the Middle East need stronger cyber resilience without added complexity these enhancements deliver exactly that.”

— Mazin Bayado, Technical Leader – Middle East, Cohesity

Strengthening Sovereignty and Compliance

As regulatory and data residency requirements intensify, Cohesity is expanding its sovereign cloud ecosystem through new collaborations with AntemetA and Singtel, building on its role as a launch partner for AWS European Sovereign Cloud and its certification as a Google Cloud Ready Regulated and Sovereignty Solutions partner. In Canada, Cohesity is partnering with Micrologic to deliver sovereign data protection services.

“Resilience today requires early threat detection, clean recovery, and unified control across complex, hybrid environments.”

— Vasu Murthy, Chief Product Officer, Cohesity

Enhanced Threat Detection and Clean Recovery

Cohesity announced new capabilities to help organizations detect ransomware, verify clean recovery points, and support resilience even in isolated environments. These include integrated threat scanning for Cohesity FortKnox, dark‑site deployments, self‑encrypting drives with embedded malware scanning for NetBackup Flex Appliance, and cloud environment recovery using declarative design principles.

AI-Powered Insights and Greater Accessibility

Cohesity Gaia now supports federated semantic search using the Model Context Protocol, enabling secure access to governed backup data for AI applications such as Glean. A new Gaia Catalog will allow teams to access protected data through platforms like Databricks and Microsoft Fabric.

To support midsize enterprises, Cohesity unveiled Cohesity Essentials, simplified pricing and packaging that make enterprise-grade cyber resilience more accessible.
