AvePoint, the global leader in AI data protection, has enhanced the AvePoint Confidence Platform with new agentic AI governance features and expanded data protection coverage across multi-SaaS, IaaS, and PaaS environments. These updates build on the recent AgentPulse Command Center launch, enabling organizations to define custom risk postures for AI agents, monitor security issues, and remediate problems directly within the platform while providing unified resilience for data wherever work happens.
AvePoint announced significant enhancements to its Confidence Platform focused on agentic AI governance and broader data protection. The updates empower organizations to safely deploy and manage AI agents by defining tailored risk criteria, monitoring agent security posture, and correcting vulnerabilities directly in the platform—without needing separate tools.
John Hodges, Chief Product Officer at AvePoint, stated: “AvePoint continues to build new, innovative products to drive world-class data security and governance for AI and agentic AI, as exemplified by our AgentPulse launch last November. These latest updates build on that momentum, ensuring our customers have access to the tools they need to use agentic AI tools safely and efficiently. We understand that organizations are under pressure to deliver successful agentic AI initiatives and we continue to give them the confidence and control they need to ensure that their agentic AI investments are meaningful and secure.”
These capabilities address critical challenges highlighted in industry research, including MIT findings that 95% of agentic AI projects fail to meet goals, primarily due to data quality and governance issues. AvePoint’s expanded frameworks enable proactive risk management, helping teams mitigate exposure while accelerating responsible AI adoption.
The platform now supports additional backup sources to protect critical business data across diverse environments:
All protected sources appear in the Data Resiliency Command Center, providing a centralized view of risk exposure and mitigation options.
John Peluso, Chief Technology Officer at AvePoint, noted: “We know that today’s data protection and governance challenges aren’t limited to a single platform or cloud environment. That’s why AvePoint is taking steps to offer even more protection and governance support to customers across Microsoft, Google, Salesforce, and other cloud environments. Our mission will always be protecting you and your data, wherever it lives, whenever you operate.”
These enhancements reinforce AvePoint’s strategy of delivering a single, extensible platform for data lifecycle control, multicloud governance, and rapid recovery. As a launch partner for Microsoft 365 Backup Storage, AvePoint Cloud Backup Express continues to offer industry-leading speed for backup and restore, allowing organizations to right-size protection levels based on data criticality.
The updates position AvePoint to help customers build resilient, AI-ready data foundations that prevent overexposure, reduce sprawl, and minimize disruption in hybrid and multicloud environments.
