Rubrik Inc. and Mandiant into a Strategic Partnership to Enhance Zero Trust Data Security Solutions
Rubrik, Inc., the Zero Trust Data Security™ Company, today announces a new partnership and technology integration with Mandiant, part of Google Cloud. The collaboration brings together leaders in data security, incident response, and threat intelligence, aiming to expedite customers’ threat detection and path to cyber recovery.
Despite the fact that the global median dwell time from compromise to detection is increasing, threat actors continue to operate undetected in victims’ environments for a median of 10 days, which provides them with an abundance of time to execute a destructive attack, as per Mandiant’s 2024 M-Trends report. Organizations frequently restore to the most recent backup that was created before encryption. However, what if that backup has been infected with a backdoor? This cooperation enables the proactive application of indicators of compromise that have been acquired on the frontlines of some of the most impactful breaches, thereby enhancing cyber resilience.
