Druva integrates with Microsoft Sentinel for enhanced security operations

Integration unifies security and IT teams with comprehensive view across security environments to accelerate incident response.

Druva, a provider of data security, announced a new integration with Microsoft Sentinel that offers Security Operations (SecOps) teams a unified view of data insights spanning their company’s security and backup environments. This integration incorporates backup telemetry, system behaviors, data anomalies, and threat detections into SecOps, providing customers with centralized monitoring and real-time threat detection.

According to studies, 57% of backup compromise attempts succeeded last year, disrupting ransomware recovery efforts. Druva’s integration with Microsoft Sentinel addresses these threats by giving security and IT teams a shared view of production and backup environments.

“The challenge top of mind for every security professional is: How can I stay ahead of emerging threats?” said Yogesh Badwe, CSO at Druva. “Druva’s integration with Microsoft Sentinel empowers security teams with comprehensive visibility across all production and backup environments—meaning, the moment the SecOps team detects a threat, they can shift into response and remediation workflows. With Druva’s 100% SaaS, cloud-native approach to data security, customers gain peace of mind that no threat will slip by unnoticed.”

Microsoft Sentinel is a cloud-native Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) platform using Artificial Intelligence (AI) to analyze large volumes of security log data across an enterprise. Druva’s integration enables security teams to gain insights into backup security and respond to threats without needing additional security solutions. Benefits of the integration include:

• Bi-Directional Integration: Allows a seamless connection between the Druva Data Security Cloud and Microsoft Sentinel, enabling SecOps teams to quarantine compromised snapshots directly within their Microsoft Sentinel console.
• Faster Threat Detection & Recovery: Provides insight into backup telemetry, helping SecOps teams detect cyber threats in real-time and significantly reduce recovery time.
• Improved Productivity: Enables faster and more efficient incident response.
• Enhanced Security Visibility & Compliance: Centralized management in Sentinel, combined with Druva's data protection insights, offers deep visibility for threat hunting, compliance audits, and proactive threat mitigation.

This integration is part of Druva’s ongoing collaboration with Microsoft to address data security, global compliance, and operational continuity. The integration with Microsoft Sentinel further expands Druva’s support for the Microsoft ecosystem, which includes Microsoft Windows, Microsoft 365 (including Microsoft 365 Backup Storage), Microsoft EntraID, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and multiple Azure technologies.

Druva’s integration with Microsoft Sentinel is available today in the Azure Marketplace. For more information on how Druva’s support for the Microsoft security ecosystem can strengthen cyber resilience, please visit the website.
