How to achieve workload portability that is essential
How to select the right partners to help accelerate your data management and data protection modernization

Common countermeasures to ransomware include antivirus, antimalware, and firewall blockers. These are certainly necessary, but they’re not enough to keep you safe. In fact, the majority of victims already had these solutions in place. That means your ransomware strategy should reduce attack risks while also seeking to mitigate the impact of an attack that succeeds anyway. It’s all too likely that one will — so you need to be ready. Join us on this webinar to learn how can Commvault help you defend against

Disaster recovery and IT resilience are hot topics these days. With the constant threat of ransomware, and the general spread of data across a more diverse mix of on-premises and cloud locations making a solid disaster recovery plan for your data is not an easy task. When examining different solutions, you need to be sure they can meet the needs of your business and can deliver on the recovery point objectives (RPO) and recovery time objectives (RTO) required. Not all workloads need to be treated the same, and not all solutions can cover all your applications and data sources. So what are you missing?

Join us as we examine different approaches to disaster recovery, the various needs for modern workloads, and some key features that will help make your disaster recovery plans successful.

We’ll learn how and where automation can assist and discuss options for flexibility to help you tailor your plans to best fit the needs of your different workloads and data types. Of course, it wouldn’t be a webinar without a demo and we won’t disappoint! Tune in for a demo of the latest functionality from Commvault Disaster Recovery that can make your DR plans into reality.

You will learn

- How to plan for rapid change in your cloud environment

- Where you can save costs in cloud spend

- How to cover long term retention needs for cloud-based data

- What you can do to reduce complexity in managing cloud data

- How to provide compliance for cloud applications and databases

With data in the cloud and spread globally, security and compliance are big concerns. Will IT be able to locate and identify critical workloads and data? Can they secure sensitive data? How will the corporate policies be adequately enforced with more and more data outside the datacenter? What about the impact of the expanded remote workforce?

This is where Commvault Data Governance enables you to not only identify sensitive data, but to easily secure it or delete it as needed. Powered by advanced analytics and machine learning, information about files, email, databases, and their contents are centralized in an intelligent index. This provides a consistent view of your data across your organization – regardless of where that data may reside. Through these analytics you can quickly find sensitive data residing in both your live environment and within your Commvault backup or archive copies. While many key data types related to HIPAA, FERPA, PCI, are common, you may have company-specific requirements.

Join us for a short demo showing you how to leverage these actionable insights to enhance your data management capabilities and drive governance initiatives within your organization. Some things you’ll see include:

An overview of the analytics dashboards within Commvault Command Center
How to review and define data entities for proactive search
How to remediate any sensitive data issues uncovered in the environment.
Be ready to know more about your data, with Commvault data analytics and actionable insights.

It seems like every time you need to protect a new application or data workload; you need to add another tool or interface to the party. So much for a “complete solution”…

Rather than making IT easier, the approach of many vendors to “buy vs build” new functionality into their portfolios only makes life harder for the customer. These solutions rarely integrate well together, often require their own duplicate silos of infrastructure or at the very least add yet another interface for you to “explore” your data.



Join us as we explore how to not only protect data across on-premises and multi-cloud environments, but also provide analytics, security, and ransomware protection all from a single, powerful UI – the Commvault Command Center. Many others in the marketplace, even the newer players are still just adding to the problem of data (and interface) fragmentation rather than solving it. Don’t get stuck running separate consoles when you were promised a “single-pane-of-glass”. Be ready for a truly unified approach to data management with Commvault.



Of course, there’ll be a demo to prove it so tune in!
