Commvault Partners with CloudSEK to Enhance Identity Resilience Against Cyber Threats

Commvault Strengthens Identity Resilience with CloudSEK Partnership

On March 5, 2026, Commvault Systems, a frontrunner in unified resilience, announces a pivotal strategic partnership with CloudSEK, an innovator in Predictive Threat Intelligence. This collaboration aims to bolster defenses against identity-based cyberattacks, particularly those that stem from compromised credentials—a growing threat in the cyber landscape. With cyber breaches increasingly linked to stolen credentials, and over 24 billion of such assets currently available on dark web markets, an urgent focus on proactive risk identification becomes crucial. By integrating CloudSEK’s real-time Dark Web Credential Intelligence into Commvault’s Active Directory Vulnerability Assessments and Advanced Audit solutions, the partnership enhances organizations' ability to detect and manage identity risks effectively.

Through this integration, Commvault equips organizations to correlate external credential exposure with internal identity data, facilitating early detection and remediation of at-risk accounts. The system’s automated scoring and prioritization of vulnerabilities help security teams target critical issues, allowing them to act before potential breaches escalate. This proactive shift is essential in today’s evolving threat landscape, where artificial intelligence increasingly drives cyberattacks. Pranay Ahlawat, Commvault's Chief Technology and AI Officer, underscores the value of this partnership in empowering customers to unveil hidden identity risks and neutralize identity threats before they manifest, a necessity as the pace and sophistication of attacks rise.

The partnership is not only a technological advancement but also a commitment to empowering organizations with the tools necessary for safeguarding their identities. Nivya Ravi, AVP of Partnerships at CloudSEK, emphasizes this shift from reactive detection to proactive disruption, allowing organizations to address exposed credentials before exploitation becomes a problem. Set to be available at no cost this summer for users of Commvault's Active Directory solutions, this integration exemplifies a significant stride towards enhanced cybersecurity in an era where identity attacks are increasingly prevalent.

In addition to the CloudSEK collaboration, Commvault also expands its Identity Resilience portfolio to support Okta, facilitating rapid recovery from identity-centric attacks. With 107 billion identity records exposed in 2024 alone, the need for robust identity systems is paramount as organizations transition to hybrid cloud and SaaS environments. The new capabilities provide automated protection and accelerated recovery processes for key Okta configurations, enabling swift access restoration without lengthy manual interventions.

Commvault's enhancements reflect its ongoing commitment to strengthening enterprise security, positioning the company as a leader in navigating the complexities of identity in contemporary cybersecurity. As organizations face the growing threat of identity-related breaches, Commvault equips them with the advanced tools necessary to maintain resilience, safeguard operations, and ensure business continuity in a digital landscape fraught with risks.
