Druva Cyber Resilience
A staffed SOC for your backup estate — 24/7 managed detection, curated clean-set recovery and quarantine — building on the air gap that keeps the copies unreachable.
How it’s rated
Full scoreboard ↓Quick answer
Druva's cyber-resilience layer is a staffed SOC for your backup estate. Managed Data Detection & Response (MDDR) puts Druva's own team on 24/7/365 watch — anomaly triage, threat detection and response guidance — the smoke detector nobody was listening to, staffed. Accelerated Ransomware Recovery does curated recovery: assembling a clean restore set across time (the newest safe version of every file) rather than gambling on one recovery point. Quarantine isolates infected snapshots so they can't be restored by accident. And Dru Investigate brings GenAI to incident forensics — natural-language questions of the data during the worst week. The air gap keeps the copies; this layer makes sure they're clean and someone's watching.

Understand cyber resilience before you buy it
Most product pages skip this. We start here — so you buy a capability, not a buzzword.
What is backup-estate cyber resilience?
Making the backups watched, clean and recoverable under attack — not just present. Managed detection watches, curated recovery reassembles the clean maximum, quarantine isolates infection, and AI forensics investigates.
It builds on the air gap: copies that are unreachable first, then verifiably clean and monitored.
Unwatched copies vs the staffed, curated estate — the honest table
What consolidation actually replaces, dimension by dimension.
| Dimension | Backups + empty inbox + one lucky point | Watched & curated (Druva) |
|---|---|---|
| The 3 a.m. alert | Fires into an empty inbox | Druva's SOC reads it, calls you |
| Recovery point | One gamble — infected or old | Curated clean set across time |
| Re-import risk | The admin restores the malware | Quarantine isolates it |
| Incident forensics | Specialists you can't reach | Dru Investigate, natural language |
| The SOC | A team you can't hire | A service you can buy |
| Clean-point question | 'When were we last safe?' — a guess | Answered by detection data |
| Copies themselves | In the blast radius | Air-gapped foundation |
| Insurance answer | 'We have backups' | Watched, curated, evidenced |
Adoption switches the watch on across the estate — and the first curated-recovery drill proves the clean maximum.
The five pieces of the platform
Vendors love diagrams; buyers need to know what they’re actually operating. Here’s the whole platform, demystified.
The Air Gap
Copies in Druva's cloud, unreachable from your estate — the layer everything else builds on. Attackers can't delete what they can't reach.
MDDR SOC
24/7/365 human-plus-AI monitoring of the backup estate — anomaly triage, detection and response guidance as a service.
Curated Recovery
Rather than one recovery point (all-or-nothing), ARR assembles the newest clean version of every file — the maximum recovery attackers didn't corrupt.
Quarantine
Snapshots flagged infected are isolated from recovery flows — the re-import failure prevented structurally.
Dru Investigate
Natural-language investigation of the data during an incident — the specialist skill, partially productised, on your worst week.
One agent on every machine, one console over all of them — modules attach without a second operational world.
Twelve capabilities. Detect, recover, investigate.
Druva makes the backups watched, clean and recoverable under attack — the layer above copies that are merely present.
24/7 Managed Detection
Druva's own SOC watching the backup estate around the clock — anomaly triage and response guidance, staffed.
Anomaly Detection
Encryption-pattern and mass-change signals on backup streams — the earliest tripwire most estates have.
Human-in-the-Loop Alerts
The 4 a.m. anomaly becomes a phone call from Druva's team — not an email into an empty inbox.
Infection Isolation
Snapshots flagged infected are isolated from recovery — the admin can't restore the malware by accident.
Accelerated Ransomware Recovery
The newest clean version of every file across time — the maximum recovery the attacker didn't corrupt.
Last-Known-Good Intelligence
Detection data pinpoints when you were last clean — 'when do we restore from?' answered, not guessed.
Guided Recovery
Response and restore sequencing informed by the detection — a plan, not adrenaline.
Maximum-Recovery Design
Curated sets aim for total file recovery — real victims report zero loss where one-point restore would fail.
Dru Investigate — GenAI Forensics
Natural-language questions of the data during an incident — the specialist skill, on your worst week.
After-Action Reports
Dru generates incident summaries and evidence — the documentation counsel and insurers request.
The Air-Gapped Foundation
It all builds on copies unreachable from your estate — clean AND untouchable, one architecture.
One SOC Over Everything
MDDR watches DC, SaaS, endpoints and cloud together — one staffed watch across every venue.

Here’s what genuinely sets Druva Cyber apart from the alternatives.
The smoke detector, finally staffed
Anomaly alerts on backups are decoration if nobody reads them at 3 a.m. MDDR puts Druva's own SOC on 24/7 watch — the alert becomes a defence because a human (plus AI) is looking.
Curated recovery beats one lucky point
Traditional recovery gambles on a single restore point — too new and it's infected, too old and you lose weeks. ARR assembles the newest CLEAN version of every file across time: the maximum the attacker didn't ruin.
Quarantine kills the re-import failure
The classic disaster — restoring the malware with the data — dies here: infected snapshots are isolated from recovery flows, so the clean restore stays clean.
Dru Investigate on your worst week
GenAI incident forensics — ask the data natural-language questions when every hour counts and specialist analysts are unavailable. The skill, partially productised, exactly when you need it.
A SOC without hiring one
The 24/7 managed layer means lean teams get enterprise-grade backup-estate monitoring without the headcount — the staffed watching that in-house would cost a team you can't hire.
Built on the air gap, not beside it
This layer works because the copies are already unreachable — Druva's architectural air gap is the foundation curated recovery and quarantine build on. Detection plus isolation plus clean copies is one motion, one vendor.

Quick poll — what’s driving your evaluation?
Talk to an advisor“MDDR flagged encryption anomalies at 4 a.m. on a Sunday — Druva's team called us. Our own alerts would have waited for Monday. That call was the incident, contained.”
“Curated recovery gave us the newest clean version of every file — 100% recovery, zero loss, after an attack that corrupted our latest snapshots. One recovery point would have failed.”
“Quarantine stopped a well-meaning admin from restoring an infected snapshot into production mid-incident. The isolation is the guardrail you don't know you need until you do.”
“We're a four-person IT team. MDDR is our SOC — 24/7 watching we could never staff, on the estate attackers hit first.”
“Dru Investigate answered 'which files changed abnormally last night?' in plain English during the incident — hours saved when hours were everything.”
“Insurance renewal asked about backup-estate monitoring and tested recovery. MDDR plus curated-recovery evidence answered both — the premium reflected it.”
“It's a service layer on the platform — you're trusting Druva's team. For us, that beat pretending we'd staff a 24/7 SOC ourselves.”
“The air gap was already why we chose Druva; this layer made the copies verifiably clean AND watched. Belt, braces, and a night watchman.”
Where everyone sits — the grids
Analyst firms bury this view behind paywalls, and G2 retired its Grid. So here’s TechBag’s synthesis of the cyber resilience market — tap any vendor to see why it sits where it does.

What does an unwatched estate cost you?
Drag the sliders (count critical systems; IT-hour cost as loaded security rate). Estimates assume ~5 hours per system per year in DIY monitoring theatre and untested-recovery risk work, with ~65% structured by the managed layer — the real number is the delta between a caught attack and a 100%-loss one, priced by your downtime. Illustrative.
Loaded cost = salary + overheads per productive hour. Illustrative only — your TechBag quote models actual device counts and modules.
