Rubrik Introduces Intelligent Business Recovery for Microsoft 365 and DevOps Protection

New Intelligent Business Recovery for Microsoft 365 restores core workflows, data, and drives operational resilience

Rubrik, the Security and AI Operations company, announced Rubrik Intelligent Business Recovery for Microsoft 365 and DevOps Protection for Azure DevOps and GitHub. These new offerings provide enterprises with intelligent, orchestrated recovery after a cyberattack or major outage. The Rubrik services enable comprehensive backup and swift recovery, and empower businesses to rapidly restore mission-critical functions for operational resilience.

“When outages occur, it can take an enterprise weeks – or even months – to get their teams back online and their data recovered,” said Anneka Gupta, Chief Product Officer at Rubrik. “Rubrik’s new AI and cyber resilience tools make it easy and fast to prioritize and restore your most important assets from code repositories to Microsoft 365, that are at the core of an enterprise’s operations, so customers can keep businesses operating while full data recovery is in process.”

Intelligent Business Recovery for Microsoft 365

Current data recovery often lacks crucial business context, leading to high risk and losses in revenue or productivity because of the simplistic focus on a single workload or data that lacks business context. Further, current solutions lack visibility into where data resides, whether the data is in Microsoft Outlook inboxes, OneDrives, SharePoint sites, Teams chats, or elsewhere.

Now, Rubrik Intelligent Business Recovery for Microsoft 365 takes a quantum leap beyond traditional time-based or data-centric approaches. Customers gain automated, business-aware recovery to restore critical users and their data across applications such as Microsoft Exchange, OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams. Rubrik intelligently defines the recovery scope to enable rapid business restoration and significantly reduce downtime.

Rubrik Intelligent Business Recovery for Microsoft 365 will allow customers to:

• Identify key users: Admins can define the C-suite members, department heads, and other users who are critical for the company to function.
• Analyze critical workflows: Intelligently scans all Microsoft 365 protected assets, such as recent emails, files, SharePoint sites, Teams chats, and OneDrive folders, and finds the most critical data that is needed for the key users to operate.
• Automate minimal viable business (MVB) recovery: MVB brings back the minimum set of data and users that define the “viable company,” so critical teams can operate with all the critical information immediately, while full recovery continues in the background.

Rubrik Intelligent Business Recovery for Microsoft 365 is expected to be available in the coming months.

DevOps Protection for Azure DevOps and GitHub

Today’s DevOps platforms house critical intellectual property and artifacts, including source code, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and AI/ML pipelines–which means they are a prime target for cyberattacks. Unfortunately, recent high-profile breaches are definitive proof that native platform security is critically insufficient against these modern threats. DevOps environments are further exposed by the widespread use of AI agents, which can introduce new vulnerabilities for attackers to target, as well as flawed code commits at a scale that surpasses typical human error.

Rubrik DevOps Protection closes critical gaps, providing a single, trusted platform to safeguard the entire software and AI development lifecycle, ensuring organizations no longer have to risk the loss, corruption, or even temporary unavailability of their most valuable intellectual property and development pipeline. Azure DevOps and GitHub customers can now trust that their source code and Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines are protected and preserved in addition to their core functions.

DevOps Protection for Azure DevOps and GitHub will provide:

● Automated & unified protection: Protects Azure DevOps and GitHub repositories and pipelines with a single, policy-driven SLA engine.
● Air-gapped, immutable backups: Secures DevOps data in a logically separate location in a natively immutable format, making it invisible and indelible to attackers.
● Rapid, granular recovery: Recovers instantly from any incident – from ransomware attacks to flawed AI code commits – with flexible restores of individual repositories.
● Enterprise-grade security: Fortifies backups with critical security features including Retention Lock, Quorum Authorization, and Role-Based Access Control.

Rubrik DevOps Protection for Azure DevOps and GitHub is expected to be available in the coming months.

Security and Operations Converge Around AI-Driven Workflows

1. AI agents must be governed like digital employees
They access data, perform actions, and make decisions. Enterprises need visibility and the ability to reverse mistakes.

2. Recovery is shifting from data-centric to business-centric
Organisations care about restoring function, not just restoring files. Rubrik’s MVB approach reflects this shift.

3. Security and operations are converging
AI-driven workflows blur the line between IT operations and cybersecurity. Vendors that support both areas will be better positioned as enterprises adopt more autonomous systems.

4. DevOps pipelines need stronger safeguards
Code repositories and CI or CD systems are now prime targets. They also contain AI models, IaC scripts, and other core assets. Protection must evolve accordingly.

FAQs

1. Why do enterprises need deeper governance for AI agents?

AI agents access sensitive data. They can also trigger automated actions. Enterprises need tools that monitor behaviour, enforce policies, and roll back unwanted changes.

2. How does Intelligent Business Recovery reduce downtime?

It restores only the key users and workflows required to keep the organisation operating. This avoids long delays and gets teams productive faster while full recovery continues.

3. What risks do AI-generated code commits create in DevOps environments?

AI can produce flawed or insecure code quickly. This increases the chance of errors entering production. DevOps Protection provides a safe recovery path and prevents long-term code corruption.

4. How is Rubrik supporting Copilot Studio users?

Agent Cloud discovers all Copilot Studio agents, monitors their activity, and protects their actions. This gives enterprises control as agent usage expands across Microsoft 365.

5. Are these new Rubrik capabilities fully available today?

Both Intelligent Business Recovery and DevOps Protection are expected in the coming months. Some features are still in early access under Rubrik’s Safe Harbor guidelines.
