Traditionally, backup solutions aimed to secure against system risks such as hardware and application failures. However, with cloud making infrastructure redundant and applications becoming more resilient, risks have shifted from infrastructure to the data layer. While security tools play a critical role in creating defensive layers to secure the enterprise perimeter, some threats inevitably breach these defenses. Legacy backup approaches typically resorted to brute force recovery, but modern incident response demands a thorough analysis of the breach's scope, impact, and remediation strategies before recovery can occur. Data security is essential in this process, providing deep data insights that, when combined with perimeter security data, drive comprehensive and effective data-powered incident response. Druva bolsters enterprise data defense with the Data Security Cloud, a 100% SaaS, fully-managed platform that enhances protection, monitoring, and recovery. Druva ensures secure and clean recovery through air-gapped immutable backups, and advanced anomaly detection facilitates early threat identification. The platform's integrated response capabilities allow organizations to assess and address threats promptly, and bounce back to clean data without loss. By combining these features, Druva complements existing perimeter defenses, providing a seamless, comprehensive solution that simplifies the response and recovery process and ensures robust protection against modern threats. About Druva Druva is the leading provider of data security solutions, empowering customers to secure and recover their data from all threats. The Druva Data Security Cloud is a fully managed SaaS solution offering air-gapped and immutable data protection across cloud, on-premises, and edge environments. By centralizing data protection, Druva enhances traditional security measures and enables faster incident response, effective cyber remediation, and robust data governance.

USA sales teams, support and almost everything else - India. **Rating:** 1.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 19, 2021 **What do you like best about Druva Data Security Cloud?** For the most part, you can pushout the Druva (inSync) client silently via GPO and after the initial setup, you can "set it and forget it." There were other things we liked... but those features are now behind a paywall and basic features (e.g. downloading your large backups via Druva console) are capped. **What do you dislike about Druva Data Security Cloud?** - You will not get what you pay for if you try. If you use most of what your package/agreement offers and Druva management decides that your account isn't making them money (their words), "the renewal may be significantly different than you expect" (their words again). - There is about a 2 GB backup download limit via the Druva console. Yes... the backups you pay for are pretty much stuck. Doing a restore to another device may work, but I've had backups that have completed successfully not allow me to view or restore. Need to download your backups that are larger than 2 GB? Well... you'll need the Legal Hold (eDiscovery) package for every user/seat. I think the price is an additional $10 per seat - I have laptops that have InSync installed but aren't backing up (they should be every 5 minutes). Supposedly it doesn't play too well with Windows Defender. - PST backup downloads were broken for a time. It takes a long time to generate PST files. - We have many minor issues, but support has done what they could from their side. I just wish I didn't need to worry about the backups not happening. - We've had about 5 account reps. We find out about the new rep only when we reach out to Druva for issues. We have been promised a no-cost resolution to our 2 GB download limit/cap, the account rep leaves Druva, and the new account rep says that our account isn't making them money and that we're not getting anything for free. FYI: SHI has been pushing Druva on us hard. They wanted us to also use Druva for our VMware backups and server backups. **Recommendations to others considering Druva Data Security Cloud:** You may need to up your backup storage capacity. We had to bring down the client CPU usage limit. **What problems is Druva Data Security Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?** Our need was to have silent user (endpoint) backups (when at work or home) and O365 backups in the event that emails or files are deleted. Only Druva had the features we needed to accomplish this. Other solutions require the customer to provide their own cloud. Druva does it all for us. ### 2. Used to be a fan, will never use again **Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Biotechnology | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 18, 2020 **What do you like best about Druva Data Security Cloud?** How Druva used to be in the past, as in, an early adopter of cloud infrastructure and a reasonable product. **What do you dislike about Druva Data Security Cloud?** We were pushed away by Druva as a customer on multiple different accounts: first, our "unlimited" plan for backups turned out to not be unlimited. When asked about this, Druva's response was that we should delete stuff, which makes no sense. There was no option to simply pay more for extra storage, as this was already the unlimited plan. On Phoenix specifically, they started charging us as soon as a contract was signed, well before a single bit was backed up. We were paying for many TBs of backups before we started using the product. Then Druva started discontinuing features that were important to us with no workarounds. We will never be using them again. **Recommendations to others considering Druva Data Security Cloud:** Switch. **What problems is Druva Data Security Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are no longer solving any problems nor have realized any benefits. ## Druva Data Security Cloud Discussions - [Does it cost extra to put druva on a mobile device?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/51544-does-it-cost-extra-to-put-druva-on-a-mobile-device) - 1 comment, 1 upvote - [The bulk User deletion/disable/preserve option is not available.
