Rackspace and Rubrik Working to Redefine Cyber Resilience

Rubrik, a cybersecurity company, and Rackspace Technology, which offers end-to-end hybrid cloud and AI solutions, established a strategic partnership. The companies are collaborating to deliver a new managed isolated recovery service: Rackspace Cyber Recovery Cloud. This Rubrik-powered service is expected to help organizations achieve cyber resilience and promote business continuity during cyberattacks. 

It combines Rubrik’s data protection and cyber-recovery software with Rackspace’s hybrid cloud expertise and global data center footprint. The partnership is expected to address immediate cyber-recovery needs, and empower businesses to reduce operational risk as a competitive advantage. 

The Rackspace Cyber Recovery Cloud offers an isolated, on-demand or dedicated managed solution that gives enterprises access to an air-gapped platform to recover mission-critical workloads. It provides an orchestrated recovery approach that speeds restoration (hours instead of days/weeks/months) and provides BC in a clean, isolated environment. 

“The launch of Rackspace Cyber Recovery Cloud powered by Rubrik comes at a critical time as ransomware incidents and compliance risks continue to escalate, while traditional backup and disaster recovery solutions have become insufficient, cost-prohibitive, and technically challenging,”’ said Amar Maletira, the CEO of Rackspace Technology.  “This strategic partnership with Rubrik fills a recognized gap in the market and delivers something truly unique – the ability to recover data as well as rapidly restore operational capability in a clean, isolated environment in hours rather than days or weeks.” 

“As we chart the course for a more secure digital future, our collaboration with Rackspace Technology represents the paramount next step in our journey,” said Bipul Sinha, Rubrik’s CEO, chairman and co-founder. “Unified as a cohesive force, we aim to provide customers with a robust and streamlined approach to cyber recovery, ensuring the safeguarding of vital data and uninterrupted business continuity.”
