A Rubrik Zero Labs report found that 66% of IT and security leaders report that data growth outpaces their ability to secure data and mitigate risk. Adversaries are noticing, increasing the sophistication of cyberattacks, and leveraging gaps in coverage to target critical data for destruction, theft, or extortion. As the volume of data continues to grow and exacerbate visibility challenges, organizations must find ways to manage and protect their constantly expanding data.
Organizations need to be able to address this increasingly complex challenge. Therefore, Rubrik and Cisco join forces today to enhance organizations’ cyber resilience and protect mission-critical data against cyberattacks.
Joining Cisco SolutionsPlus
First, Rubrik joins Cisco’s SolutionsPlus program, a strategic move where all of Rubrik’s products–including our Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) offering–are added to Cisco’s Global Price List. DSPM, which proactively and comprehensively reduces the risk of data exposure and exfiltration across on-premises, cloud, and SaaS environments, solves one of the most annoying aspects of data security: knowing where all the data is and how to secure it.
Second, as part SolutionsPlus, Cisco’s direct and channel sales network can now offer Rubrik Security Cloud with Cisco Unified Computing Systems (UCS) and Cisco XDR. Across edge, public, and private cloud environments, our joint customers now have a validated architecture to mitigate ransomware and ensure business continuity with agility and orchestration resources.
Together, Rubrik and Cisco aim to deliver unified computing and zero trust data security, while ensuring data resilience against cyberattacks, malicious insiders, and operational disruptions–all with a seamless purchasing experience, from a single source.
Rubrik Security Cloud on Cisco UCS is tested and pre-engineered with Cisco Validated Designs, offering automated deployment, multi-site scaling and lifecycle management through Cisco Intersight.
Integrating with Cisco XDR
Rubrik now integrates with Cisco XDR, making it easier for enterprises to quickly identify targeted attacks on data and keep businesses moving forward with secure recovery.
Key benefits include:
Identifying targeted attacks on data: With Rubrik and Cisco XDR's comprehensive threat coverage, customers benefit from rich, unified visibility of their environment and data to quickly detect and stop potential data attacks.
Accelerating investigation and prioritization: Organizations can combine threat intelligence and data context to prioritize and respond effectively to threats targeting critical data.
Enabling effective recovery and restoration: Streamline security and IT operations to keep business moving forward with secure recovery and repair of attacks.
Improving TCO and simplify lifecycle management: Cisco Intersight enables deployment and tuned configuration of the Rubrik Data Management Platform on Cisco UCS Computing infrastructure at global scale.
“Complex, siloed systems create gaps in visibility that hinder operations and slow down organizations’ ability to detect and respond to threats,” said Jeremy Foster, senior vice president and general manager of Cisco Compute. “Cisco and Rubrik are delivering threat detection and data context in one place, enabling security teams to effectively prioritize critical attacks and respond to them quickly. This partnership reflects our commitment to providing unified, modern solutions on computing infrastructure that simplifies operations and empowers organizations to protect and derive more value from their data.”
Don’t just take our word for it. See why our partners are excited for this collaboration:
"Rubrik and Cisco are two industry leaders with whom we have built strong relationships over the years,” said Matt Horner, EVP of Sales at WWT. “Cisco helps businesses solve complex IT and business problems, while Rubrik is vital in empowering organizations to achieve business resilience. We are confident that this collaboration will combine their strengths to bring immense value to organizations working to keep their data secure and systems up and running.”
“Every organization should have comprehensive threat intelligence to defend against advanced data-centric attacks,” said Jim Finn, Sales VP, Cyber at Presidio. “As a major partner to Cisco and Rubrik, we believe their collaboration will help our customers proactively advance and simplify their data security.”
