The Right Tool(s) For the Job
User Activity Based:
Identity-based risk and the weaponization of native controls have emerged as a primary threat vector. Druva’s Managed Data Detection & Response (MDDR) + SafeMode offers 24x7x365 monitoring and defense against rogue actors, malicious actions, and nefarious admin activity.
We identify threat behavior at the backup tenant level—such as unauthorized access, policy tampering, or rogue deletions—and enable rapid containment and environment rollbacks to prevent abuse by humans or NHIs.
Data Activity Based:
While traditional security tools can effectively monitor endpoints and network traffic, they often miss what is happening directly to the data itself. Stealthy attacks can quietly corrupt or tamper with files.
Druva’s Data Anomaly Detection applies AI/ML-powered monitoring to serve as an early warning system for threats. By establishing baselines of normal activity and data patterns, we provide clear indicators of abnormal spikes in file creation, modification, deletion, or entropy—alerting teams within an hour of backup to potential ransomware or insider threats before damage escalates.
IOC Signature Based:
Sophisticated threat actors frequently dwell in networks, quietly embedding dormant malware into backup datasets. Druva Threat Watch transforms immutable backups into a continuous threat detection layer, combining curated threat intelligence from CISA, Google Threat Intel, and Druva ReconX Labs alongside customer-provided feeds.
It continuously and automatically scans backup streams daily and retroactively rescans 30 days of historical snapshots when new IOCs emerge. It complements in-platform threat hunting capabilities by proactively identifying dormant threats, auto-quarantining compromised data, and eliminating reinfection risks without any infrastructure latency tax.
Behavioral & Forensic Based:
Evolving ransomware strains utilize zero-day tactics and post-compromise encryption to evade signature checks, leaving teams uncertain which backups are safe. Druva Ransomware Detection delivers a multi-stage, AI-powered detection and forensic validation engine built directly into the Druva Cloud.
By evaluating behavioral indicators like ransom notes and mass file renaming alongside deep structural checks (entropy, header, MIME verification, and more), it slashes false positives by ~98% and provides explainable proof to pinpoint known and unknown ransomware with pre-infectious snapshots for safe cyber recovery.
Embrace Informed Recovery
Incident response slows down when teams face decision paralysis. Druva eliminates blind spots by matching specialized detection workflows with specific and evolving risk vectors. By synthesizing administrative actions, data activity anomalies, static threat intelligence, and behavioral ransomware signals inside our fully managed cloud platform, we transform backup telemetry into explainable proof.
This gives IT and SecOps teams the deep visibility needed to rapidly assess breach impact and pinpoint exact pre-infectious restore points—enabling verified clean recovery without the guesswork.
