On a Mission to Secure the World's Data: Rubrik Announces Generative AI Cyber Recovery Tool

By 2025, the cybercrime business is expected to worth $10 trillion, making it the third-largest economy in the world.

This should, at the very least, raise some eyebrows.

That’s data from cybersecurity company Rubrik. Rubrik’s experts believe that, in order for today’s organizations to fight back, a no-half-measures approach to data real-time data monitoring security is key – a tested way to secure and recover data immediately, no matter where it lives. That’s what Rubrik helps businesses achieve, resilience-wise.

So, per news that dropped just this morning, Rubrik announced new generative AI capabilities for VMware customers through its new Rubrik AI-Powered Cyber Recovery offering. By leveraging generative AI and large language models (LLMs), this solution is reportedly designed to help business administrators “navigate difficult trade-offs in the aftermath of a cyberattack” to help minimize undue data loss and reduce downtime.

Here are more specifics. Rubrik AI-Powered Cyber Recovery empowers organizations to:

• Enhance Recovery Point Objective (RPO) with the most recent data: Get step-by-step guidance to recover unaffected files from the most recent snapshot, as well as affected files from the snapshot prior to suspicious threat detection — all layered on top of a clean virtual machine built from a gold master template.
   
• Eliminate malware reinfection risks with safer VM recovery: Identify vSphere templates to reconstruct clean and safe virtual machines and avoid introducing undetected vulnerabilities within the operating system.
   
• Minimize application downtime with AI-enabled task lists: Recommendations on which snapshot or files to select for a clean and successful recovery, conveyed clearly through Rubrik’s data threat analytics integrated with Azure OpenAI.

“Cyberattacks can be highly unpredictable, and the complexity and sophistication of these threats make it challenging – if not impossible – for organizations to recover data quickly, safely, and with minimal data loss,” said Anneka Gupta, Chief Product Officer of Rubrik. “We understand that every minute counts when faced with a cyberattack, and our new Rubrik AI-Powered Cyber Recovery helps organizations take advantage of every second, empowering them to get their business-critical systems and data back up and running. As we continue our mission to secure the world’s data, generative AI will be a key that helps customers unlock true cyber resilience more effectively.”
