Druva, a leading provider of data security solutions, has unveiled Dru MetaGraph, a secure, tenant-specific, graph-powered foundation for real-time data intelligence, along with two new DruAI Agents: Insights Agent and Lifecycle Agent. These innovations transform backup metadata into a queryable, actionable resource, empowering organizations to uncover insights instantly, simplify decision-making, and execute faster across cyber, compliance, and operational workflows.
Historically, backup intelligence relied on static dashboards and siloed reports, requiring manual effort or delays for analysis. Dru MetaGraph changes this by making all backup metadata—file attributes, permissions, and identity information—queryable, contextual, and AI-ready within the Druva platform. This secure layer, with end-to-end encryption and tenant isolation, eliminates ETL processes, reducing time, complexity, and costs. It positions backup as an active intelligence source for security, compliance, and operations, without exposing customer data.
The Insights Agent integrates real-time intelligence into dashboards, offering prioritized summaries of risks, anomalies, and trends with recommended actions to prevent escalation. The Lifecycle Agent examines metadata across the data lifecycle—from creation to archival—enabling targeted actions like identifying stale data, orphaned accounts, or non-compliant elements. Users can query in natural language, such as "Show me data not compliant to PCI retention," receiving contextual responses that translate to visualizations or pinned dashboard charts for dynamic monitoring.
These agents join Druva's growing AI fleet, reducing time-to-insight and enabling proactive decisions. Jaspreet Singh, CEO and co-founder of Druva, stated: “Backup has always been an untapped goldmine of intelligence, and Druva has steadily unlocked that potential with our growing family of AI agents. With Dru MetaGraph and the new DruAI agents, we're taking the next step and giving every team the ability to query and act on their metadata. This democratizes access to backup intelligence, extending its value beyond IT and security to functions like compliance and legal — a major evolution in how backup drives resilience and business outcomes across the enterprise.”
Chris Robinson, VP/Cybersecurity Director at Finance Factors, shared: “Having all our backup metadata in one secure place has completely changed how fast my lean team can operate. Instead of stitching together manual reports, the MetaGraph and AI agents give us instant answers across risk, compliance, and operations.” Johnny Yu, Research Manager at IDC, noted: “Enterprises understand they have a collection of rich metadata captured in their backups, but they've struggled to make any use of it. By combining SaaS-native architecture, tenant-specific data graphs, and AI agents, Druva is addressing long-standing challenges of siloed metadata and complex pipelines, turning backup into a dynamic intelligence layer and shifting it from an insurance policy to playing an active role in resilience, compliance, and decision-making.”
Druva's secure-by-design approach uses private RAG and isolated LLMs to ensure privacy, complying with FedRAMP, SOC2, and GDPR. The Insights Agent is generally available today, with the Lifecycle Agent coming soon. These enhancements empower nearly 7,500 customers, including 75 Fortune 500 companies, to leverage backup data for proactive resilience.
