TL;DR

Druva Threat Insights converts backup snapshots into continuous security sensors, scanning data multiple times daily to detect ransomware and malware before they compromise recovery operations.
ThreatWatch mode proactively monitors backups and automatically rescans the last 30 days when new threats are identified, helping teams locate clean recovery points and quarantine infected snapshots.
Threat Hunting mode enables targeted investigation during incidents, allowing security teams to scope blast radius, run custom IOC scans, and permanently destroy malware from backups with defensible deletion.

Summary

This demonstration introduces Druva Threat Insights, a security capability that transforms backup data into an active threat detection layer. The solution addresses a critical gap in ransomware defense: malware that dwells undetected long enough to contaminate backup snapshots, rendering recovery efforts ineffective. Druva's approach scans backup data directly in the backup stream without requiring additional infrastructure or data movement. The platform operates in two modes — ThreatWatch for proactive monitoring during normal operations, and Threat Hunting for rapid investigation during active incidents. Key capabilities include automated rescanning of the previous 30 days when new indicators of compromise are detected, automatic quarantine of infected snapshots to prevent accidental restoration of compromised data, and defensible deletion to permanently remove malware from backup repositories. The solution integrates with existing security tools and provides dashboards and alerts to accelerate incident response and recovery workflows.

0:31 "When new IOCs are detected, we automatically rescan the last 30 days to find your ideal recovery point."

FAQ

How does Druva Threat Insights detect threats without impacting backup performance?

Druva scans data directly in the backup stream as snapshots are created, eliminating the need for separate infrastructure or data movement. This approach provides continuous threat detection without adding operational complexity or performance overhead to backup operations.

What happens when Druva detects a new threat in my backup data?

When new indicators of compromise are detected, Druva automatically rescans the last 30 days of backup snapshots to identify the ideal recovery point. Infected snapshots are quarantined by default to prevent accidental restoration, and teams receive urgent alerts with dashboards showing threat details and recommended actions.
