Druva, a leading provider of data security solutions, has unveiled new and enhanced integrations with Palo Alto Networks, Splunk, and Sumo Logic, bringing backup data telemetry directly into security operations tools. These integrations empower IT and security teams to enhance their Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) and extended detection and response (XDR) capabilities with valuable backup data insights. By leveraging Druva’s extensive integration ecosystem, organizations gain deeper visibility into data anomalies, enabling them to proactively respond to and recover from cyber threats.
In the past year, ransomware attacks have increasingly targeted backup data, yet it often remains isolated from core security operations. This separation makes it challenging for security teams to efficiently detect, investigate, and respond to threats. Druva’s integration of backup telemetry into SIEM and XDR platforms bridges this critical gap, offering comprehensive visibility across user activities, application logs, and backup telemetry. This holistic approach enhances threat detection speed and accuracy, while simultaneously minimizing the risk of data loss. Furthermore, combining SIEM insights with Druva’s proprietary Managed Data Detection and Response helps businesses improve regulatory compliance and accelerate audit processes.
“Security teams don’t just need a wealth of data to defend against cyber threats, they need real-time, actionable insights to filter out the noise,” said Shankar Subramaniam, VP & GM of Security at Druva. “Druva’s enhanced integrations with Palo Alto Networks, Splunk, and Sumo Logic enable security teams to get end-to-end insights so they can accelerate incident response and mitigate threats before they escalate into a full-blown crisis. We’re constantly working to help customers safeguard their data, and our integrations should help reduce the business disruption caused by cyber attacks.”

By incorporating backup data into security workflows, Druva’s integrations with leading SIEM platforms provide comprehensive threat monitoring and improved incident response capabilities. Key benefits include:
- Real-Time Event Ingestion: Simplifies the process of collecting backup-related events, such as data access and file modifications, enabling faster threat detection.
- Streamlined Incident Correlation: Automates incident management to expedite threat identification, escalation, and remediation by correlating backup events with security data.
- Bidirectional Remediation Actions: Utilizes SIEM features to quarantine compromised snapshots and swiftly restore data from backups, ensuring minimal operational downtime.
- Enhanced Compliance and Reporting Support: Offers detailed visibility into backup events, facilitating regulatory compliance and audit readiness.
Druva’s comprehensive approach to data security is focused on enhancing organizational cyber resilience by ensuring continuous protection of backup data without the need for additional security infrastructure. These latest integrations complement Druva’s broader partner ecosystem, which includes collaborations with Microsoft, Okta, and ServiceNow.
“Organizations need a cohesive infrastructure of cyber and data security technologies to effectively keep threats at bay,” said Justin Iwaniszyn, Director, New and Emerging Alliances at GuidePoint Security. “Druva’s integration ecosystem helps extend the comprehensive protection offered by its fully managed Data Security Cloud, enabling customers to integrate backup data into security data workflows for even faster threat detection and response.”
With these advanced integrations, Druva continues to solidify its position as a trusted partner in data security, helping organizations stay ahead of evolving cyber threats and maintain business continuity.
