Builds on Cohesity–Semperis partnership established in 2024.
Designed to help enterprises strengthen defenses and reduce business disruption.
Active Directory remains a critical target for attackers, as it manages authentication and access across enterprise IT systems. When compromised, cybercriminals can exploit it to deploy ransomware, steal data, and disrupt operations. Cohesity Identity Resilience addresses these risks by securing both on-premises and cloud-based identity environments, offering recovery options that extend to Microsoft Entra ID.
Sanjay Poonen, chief executive officer at Cohesity, explained: “Identity Security is one of the key battlegrounds of cyberattacks for enterprises and governments. They need solutions that combine prevention, resilience, and recovery without adding complexity to their existing cyber resilience strategy.”
Powered by Semperis technology, Cohesity Identity Resilience integrates automated detection, recovery, and forensics. Customers can leverage:
Proactive Active Directory hardening: scan hybrid environments, identify attack paths, assess risk scores, and apply remediation guidance.
Immutable backups and cyber vaulting: provide secure, isolated backups for reliable recovery.
Rapid and secure recovery: restore Active Directory forests after cyberattacks with minimal downtime.
Specialized identity forensics: remove attacker artifacts to ensure trusted environments.
Comprehensive post-breach analysis: validate integrity and deliver forensic reports before restoring production systems.
Mickey Bresman, chief executive officer at Semperis, noted: “By partnering with Cohesity, we’re integrating our industry-leading Active Directory technology with the broadly adopted Cohesity Data Cloud, ensuring the world’s largest global organizations have a trusted, streamlined path to protect against and recover from even the most sophisticated identity-based attacks.”
Cohesity Identity Resilience also responds to growing demand from enterprises seeking solutions for prolonged identity compromises. Scott Harrison, director, Hybrid Infrastructure Solutions at CDW, emphasized its value: “With Cohesity Identity Resilience, powered by Semperis, we see a solution that directly addresses this gap—helping enterprises strengthen defenses, recover quickly, and maintain confidence in their core identity systems.”
The offering builds upon the Cohesity–Semperis collaboration that began in 2024, marking a milestone in delivering scalable, identity-focused cyber resilience.
