Cohesity, a leader in AI-powered data security, has announced an expanded strategic partnership with Google Cloud to help organisations enhance their cyber resilience and extract greater value from business data.
The collaboration aims to equip businesses with advanced tools to detect threats earlier, accelerate response, and ensure rapid recovery in the event of cyber incidents — particularly critical as enterprises face increasing threats such as ransomware. According to industry estimates, businesses lose an average of US$540,000 per hour of downtime, highlighting the urgency of such capabilities.
Key Features of the Expanded Partnership:
-
Google Threat Intelligence Integration: Now embedded in the Cohesity Data Cloud, enabling rapid detection of emerging threats through insights derived from 1,100+ annual investigations and 450+ tracked threat actors.
-
Joint Incident Response with Mandiant: Cohesity CERT and Google’s Mandiant will provide integrated incident response, from securing backups to recovering critical infrastructure, reducing recovery time and minimising business disruption.
-
Cloud Isolated Recovery Environment (CIRE): Customers can pre-establish a secure recovery setup in Google Cloud, ensuring a trusted recovery path post-incident.
-
Integration with Google Security Operations: Enhancing visibility and data protection by combining Cohesity’s data security with Google’s security tools for a unified defence strategy.
Enhancing Data Value with AI
To address growing data complexity, Cohesity is also integrating with Google’s AI technologies:
-
Cohesity Gaia x Google Agentspace: Gaia, Cohesity’s AI agent, will now operate in Google’s Agentspace to provide smarter, secure search and task automation across distributed data environments.
-
Google Gemini x Cohesity Gaia: The integration of Gemini AI models will enhance Gaia’s enterprise search capabilities, enabling deeper data analysis and insight generation.
“Organisations need solutions that not only protect data but unlock its strategic value,” said Stephen Orban, VP at Google Cloud. “Our deepening partnership with Cohesity offers exactly that.”
Lim Hsin Yin, VP of Sales – ASEAN at Cohesity, added that businesses in the region are increasingly turning to AI to improve cyber resilience, while Vikram Kanodia, VP of Technology and Cloud Alliances, reaffirmed the company’s commitment to keeping customers secure and data-driven.
The incident response integration and Google Security Operations connection are available now. Broader integrations for cyber resilience and data insights will roll out by summer 2025.
