Commvault, a provider of cyber resilience and data protection solutions for the hybrid cloud, announced a new partnership and technology integration with Delinea, which specializes in privileged access management (PAM). The integration connects the Commvault Cloud platform with Delinea’s Secret Server to help joint customers strengthen credential security, support compliance initiatives and streamline data recovery, officials said.
New PAM capabilities on the Commvault Cloud platform includes centralized credential management in which customers can manage and rotate credentials for backup environments from a single platform to reduce complexity and eliminate unmanaged or orphaned accounts. In addition, just-in-time (JIT) access automatically issues temporary credentials for each backup or restore job and then revokes access upon completion to minimize misuse, the company said.
The integration is also designed to strengthen audit and compliance capabilities, including the ability to generate detailed audit logs to support compliance initiatives such as SOX, HIPAA, PCI-DSS and GDPR, officials said.
“Our integration with Delinea strengthens customers’ ability to manage credentials and limit privilege misuse, which can help protect against rapidly evolving identity-driven attacks while advancing unified resilience,” said Alan Atkinson, chief business development officer for Commvault.
“True cyber resilience depends on both the ability to recover data and the security of the recovery process itself,” said Chris Kelly, president at Delinea. “By extending our privileged access management capabilities to Commvault Cloud, we are advancing identity security, reducing the risks of manual backup credential management, and helping to ensure that recovery systems remain trustworthy and ready when needed the most.”
The Commvault Cloud integration with Delinea is available globally to joint customers at no extra cost, officials said.
