And it's not just targeting your production systems anymore. Backups, your last line of defense, are also in the crosshairs. Yet many organizations don't have the visibility into the backup ecosystem, which can create blind spots for cyber threats. Traditional security tools like SIEM platforms excel at monitoring real-time threats, but lack native integration with backup environments. This gap delays threat detection and incident response, leaving your organization vulnerable. Enter Druva's integration with Microsoft Sentinel, a game-changer in unified security operations. This powerful solution enables organizations to seamlessly incorporate backup telemetry into their broader security ecosystem. Installation and onboarding is simple. Search the Azure Marketplace for Druva integration with Microsoft Sentinel, or from the Azure Sentinel Dashboard's Content Hub. Configure data connectors to start ingesting Druva security events into Sentinel. Setup is quick with just a few API credentials. With bidirectional synchronization, security events and backup telemetry from the Druva cloud are automatically reflected in Microsoft Sentinel, ensuring real-time visibility across your security landscape. With built-in queries and logs, gain actionable insight into what is happening in your backup environment. Combined with production system logs, you now have end-to-end visibility from the edge to the cloud, allowing you to centralize security monitoring. Gain more contextual and behavioral information for cyber threat hunting, investigation, and incident response. Detect malicious files, data anomalies, and unauthorized access events in your backup environment. When ransomware payloads are found in your backups, Druva's telemetry triggers an alert in Sentinel, helping you act before the damage spreads. Combined with Druva threat hunting and defensible deletion protocols, you can take the information gathered in Sentinel and make a plan for remediation. Respond to threats automatically with predefined playbooks. Whether it's quarantining compromised snapshots or initiating recovery workflows, you'll reduce manual effort and response times. Simplify audits with detailed event logs and improve your compliance posture with continuous monitoring of backup activities. Combine these aggregated logs with Microsoft Security Copilot to let AI help accelerate threat detection, investigation, and remediation. Using natural language processing, simply ask security copilot queries like, show me backup anomalies from the past 24 hours. The AI-driven analysis surfaces critical insights within seconds. Stay ahead of threats. Empower your security teams with Druva and Microsoft Sentinel, where data protection meets intelligent security operations. Visit Druva.com to learn more.

TL;DR

Druva's Microsoft Sentinel integration eliminates security blind spots by streaming real-time backup telemetry into SIEM workflows, enabling detection of ransomware targeting backup repositories alongside production threats.
The solution deploys quickly via Azure Marketplace with bidirectional synchronization, providing built-in queries, automated playbooks for snapshot quarantine, and AI-powered threat analysis through Security Copilot.
Organizations gain end-to-end visibility across production and backup environments, accelerating incident response through automated remediation workflows while maintaining continuous compliance monitoring of backup activities.

Summary

This demonstration showcases Druva's native integration with Microsoft Sentinel, addressing a critical blind spot in enterprise security operations: the lack of visibility into backup environments during ransomware incidents. Traditional SIEM platforms excel at monitoring production systems but typically lack integration with backup infrastructure, creating gaps in threat detection when attackers target backup repositories. The integration enables bidirectional synchronization between Druva's cloud platform and Microsoft Sentinel, streaming real-time backup telemetry including malicious file detection, data anomalies, and unauthorized access events directly into the security operations workflow. Organizations can deploy the solution quickly through Azure Marketplace with minimal API configuration, gaining immediate access to built-in queries, automated playbooks for quarantining compromised snapshots, and AI-powered threat analysis through Microsoft Security Copilot. The solution provides end-to-end visibility from edge to cloud, centralizing security monitoring across production and backup environments while enabling faster incident response through automated remediation workflows and continuous compliance monitoring of backup activities.
