vulnerability discovery tool, and this is going to be an opportunity for defenders like us, but also for attackers. And we are prepared for this moment, because as you think about the NIST framework, there's sort of detect and prevent, and there's recover and remediate. So the first thing we've always said is, if you take an assumed breach kind of mindset, the detection and prevention aspects are very important, but just their importance is how quickly you can bounce back. And the largest organizations in the world, you know, in our 13,000 customers, we have over 70% of the global 500. These are the biggest banks, and some of these banks are named banks that are working with us to ensure that their code is, you know, sort of protected, and they're working with us. In fact, they're asking us to ensure that we're scanning our capabilities in close concert with Anthropic and other key AI players like OpenAI. We have been built to be secure by design. We were built for a cloud and security era, and many of the machine learning and AI techniques were built into the kind of capabilities even before Genevieve AI was actually sort of come to bear in the last three years. We have done things like continuous automated testing, ongoing penetration testing, and today we use many AI-assisted techniques, including access to non-publicly available AI systems to accelerate vulnerability analysis. We have a team that's dedicated to this, and they are in concert with these largest customers. So the first thing I want you to be assured, if you're a Cohesity customer, they are some of the biggest companies in the Fortune 500 who are working with us on this topic, and no customer data ever leaves your environment, and those customers that are working with us in close concert, most of them are banks, public sector, telco, some of the biggest brands. Ensure that we are safe for them, and if we're safe for them, we will be safe for you, okay? When we find vulnerabilities, we move very quickly, we assess the severity of them, we prioritize, we assess real risk, and then we move rapidly to develop and validate fixes. We have to move faster than ever before to ensure they're fixed, and as your trusted partner, we're taking proactive steps to always ensure that our environment is hardened, monitored for vulnerabilities, and increasing the capabilities to manage risk as part of our entire security program. We're honored to be a resilience partner before, during, and possibly after a cyber event. As AI changes the game, we're committed to keeping ahead and providing guidance to our customers and partners. This thing I know for sure, in uncertain times, resilience matters more than ever. Thank you for choosing a resilience partner that you can trust. Be safe out there.

TL;DR

  • AI is accelerating vulnerability discovery for both attackers and defenders, and Cohesity has built its platform with security-by-design principles to address this evolving threat landscape.
  • Cohesity employs continuous automated testing, penetration testing, and AI-assisted vulnerability analysis in partnership with Anthropic and OpenAI, with dedicated teams working alongside Fortune 500 customers.
  • Over 70% of Global 500 companies trust Cohesity, with major banks and enterprises collaborating on security protocols while ensuring customer data never leaves their environments.

Summary

Cohesity CEO Sanjay Poonen addresses how artificial intelligence is transforming vulnerability discovery for both attackers and defenders in cybersecurity. He emphasizes that Cohesity's platform was built with security-by-design principles for the cloud era, incorporating machine learning and AI techniques before the recent generative AI boom. The company employs continuous automated testing, ongoing penetration testing, and AI-assisted vulnerability analysis using non-publicly available AI systems in partnership with major AI providers like Anthropic and OpenAI. Poonen highlights that over 70% of the Global 500 companies are Cohesity customers, with major banks, public sector organizations, and telecommunications companies actively collaborating on security protocols. He reassures customers that their data never leaves their environment and that Cohesity's rapid vulnerability assessment and remediation processes are designed to stay ahead of emerging threats. The message centers on Cohesity's commitment to resilience as a trusted partner throughout the entire lifecycle of potential cyber events.
