Cognizant forges BRaaS alliance with Rubrik

Technology services provider Cognizant has expanded its partnership with security and AI operations company Rubrik to cover the supply of business‍-‍resilience‍-‍as‍-‍a-‍service to joint customers.

The two companies have launched a global AI-powered cyber resilience offering on a subscription-based, pay‍-‍as‍-‍you‍-‍go model. The solution has been designed to help enterprises quickly recover from cyber and ransomware attacks, by aligning recovery objectives with critical business outcomes, so organisations can minimise downtime and maintain customer trust.

The companies aim to combine Rubrik’s cyber resilience platform with Cognizant’s domain and industry experience to develop industrialised solutions designed to support client compliance objectives and enhance the business resilience lifecycle for clients.

Meanwhile, to combat threats introduced by the surge in AI adoption, the joint offering will combine Rubrik’s Agent Rewind, which is designed to allow enterprises to safely undo destructive agent actions, with Cognizant’s multi-agent orchestration platform Neuro AI.

Rubrik co-founder and CEO Bipul Sinha said the evolving threat landscape and relentless pace of cyber attacks will require enterprises to shift their security posture from simple prevention to true resilience.

“Rubrik’s expanded partnership with Cognizant and the introduction of our joint Business Resilience-as-a-Service model is that shift,” he said. “Bringing together Rubrik’s AI and security platform with Cognizant’s global delivery scale, our joint customers can quickly recover from cyber incidents with confidence — all with a flexible, consumption‍-‍based model.”
