What Rubrik Security Cloud is

Rubrik Security Cloud is a data protection and recovery platform for organizations managing information across enterprise systems, cloud services, and SaaS applications. It combines backup and recovery capabilities with tools for monitoring data risk. Rubrik describes its air-gapped, immutable backups as protection against attackers deleting, changing, or encrypting data. Threat monitoring looks for ransomware, unusual activity, data destruction, and indicators of compromise. Sensitive Data Monitoring discovers and classifies sensitive information and can flag possible policy violations. For recovery, the platform provides threat containment and simulations that let organizations validate recovery workflows.

Supported workloads include AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform, Microsoft 365, Jira, Salesforce, databases, Kubernetes, NAS, and virtual machines. A GraphQL API provides access to workloads, policies, events, and recovery. Identity controls include MFA and federation with customer identity providers using SAML or OIDC. Rubrik states that cloud data is encrypted in transit with TLS 1.2 or higher and at rest with AES-256. The service can be configured in SaaS mode or software mode, which provides standalone on-premises access to Rubrik CDM. Foundation, Business, and Enterprise editions are listed; prospective customers are directed to contact sales for pricing.
