As organizations face increasingly frequent and sophisticated cyber threats, cloud data protection has become a critical foundation for business continuity and compliance. Enterprises need solutions that can safeguard data across diverse workloads while ensuring rapid, clean recovery from incidents such as ransomware or accidental data loss. Druva’s zero-infrastructure, cloud-native architecture eliminates maintenance and complexity, enabling faster recovery, reduced operational burden, and stronger resilience across the enterprise.

“Businesses are under constant pressure to protect and recover data faster, and customers need a simpler, smarter way to stay ahead,” said Ranga Rajagopalan, chief products and marketing officer at Druva. “With DruAI, we’re helping organizations rapidly detect anomalies, guide clean recoveries, and automate protection workflows — all within a fully managed, 100% SaaS platform. GigaOm’s recognition validates our vision for making cyber resilience autonomous, where built-in AI and cloud-native simplicity work together to keep data secure without added complexity.”

According to the GigaOm Radar Report for Cloud Data Protection, Druva earned the highest scores across Key Features, Emerging Features, and Business Criteria, with notable strengths in the following areas:

• Granular Restore and Rapid Recovery: GigaOm emphasized Druva’s “world-class granular restore capabilities supporting item-level recovery for files, individual emails/mailboxes, SaaS records, database objects, and Kubernetes namespaces.” GigaOm noted that Druva’s “comprehensive end-user self-service restore, rapid RTOs, and global scale make it a leading-edge capability, significantly reducing IT workload and accelerating recovery.”
• Immutable Storage by Default: GigaOm highlighted that Druva’s “solution provides world-class immutable storage, delivered natively and by default as part of its 100% SaaS architecture.” The report stated that “all backups are stored with WORM enforcement, preventing privileged deletion and integrating with ransomware detection, making this ‘always-on, SaaS-native immutability’ leading-edge.”
• 100% SaaS, Cloud-Native Architecture: Druva’s architecture eliminates customer-managed infrastructure — no hardware, no patching, no maintenance. GigaOm noted this enables infinite scale, automatic upgrades, and faster time-to-value, distinguishing Druva from “cloud-hosted” competitors that still rely on appliances or gateways.
• AI-Driven Anomaly Detection: Druva delivers fully integrated, AI-powered anomaly detection via DruAI. GigaOm recognized that Druva “analyzes multi-dimensional signals including backup patterns, file behavior metadata, user activity, and API logs to detect ransomware-like activity.” With high accuracy and automated actions, Druva’s “built-in AI, not bolt-on” approach represents state-of-the-art threat detection within backup environments.

Druva was also recognized for its transparent, all-inclusive pricing model with no egress, API, restore, or cross-region fees, helping organizations avoid hidden costs while maintaining predictable cloud operations.

This recognition underscores Druva’s leadership in delivering secure, AI-driven, and fully managed data protection that enables enterprises to recover confidently and operate resiliently in an increasingly complex threat landscape.
