Cohesity marks sixth year as Gartner Leader for data protection
Cohesity has been named a Leader for the sixth year in a row in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Backup and Data Protection Platforms. The company's merger with the enterprise data protection business of Veritas has established it as the only vendor to be recognised as a Leader in every one of Gartner's last 20 backup and data protection platform reports. This milestone covers numerous Gartner market assessments stretching back to 1999, with titles and criteria reflecting changes in the data protection sector over time. Industry landscape As organisations globally face the ongoing challenge of safeguarding and managing increasing volumes of data, the need for reliable and scalable data protection platforms continues to grow. Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Backup and Data Protection Platforms evaluates providers based on their completeness of vision and ability to execute, highlighting the complex and evolving nature of data security requirements. The Magic Quadrant report takes into account several factors, including product capability, customer experience, and market responsiveness. With more than 200 zettabytes of the world's data said to require protection and cyber threats advancing in scale and sophistication, Gartner's analysis reflects a sector where customers seek robust, comprehensive solutions. Gartner's ongoing evaluation of vendors is considered significant by buyers in the IT procurement process, where factors such as cyber resilience, support for hybrid environments, and the ability to draw actionable insights from data are high priorities for technology leaders. Company leadership comment "Being recognised as a Leader in this report for six consecutive years underscores our innovation commitment to protecting the world's data -- while driving the future of AI-powered data security and insights," said Kit Beall, chief revenue officer, Cohesity. "Cohesity's success is driven by a unique ability to execute at scale with a comprehensive cyber resilience portfolio for complex on-premises, multicloud, and SaaS environments. These strengths underpin our mission to protect, secure, and provide insights into the world's data." The company's approach integrates artificial intelligence to build on its traditional data security portfolio, with coverage for on-premises, multicloud, and software-as-a-service (SaaS) environments. Cohesity's focus also includes providing insights drawn from enterprise data, responding to growing demands for analytics and intelligence that go beyond basic backup and recovery. Customer recognition Cohesity has also been recognised as a Customers' Choice for the seventh consecutive time in the 2025 Gartner Peer Insights Voice of the Customer report, which is based on customer experience, user interest, and adoption. The Peer Insights Voice of the Customer report collects feedback from end users to gauge levels of satisfaction with various technology solutions. This consistent recognition suggests a positive reception among enterprise clients, spanning sectors and organisational sizes. Market position Formed following the combination with Veritas' enterprise data protection business, Cohesity states its offerings are aimed at strengthening resilience while enabling AI-driven insights across significant volumes of enterprise data. The company's customer base includes more than 13,600 enterprise organisations, among them over 85 of the Fortune 100 and nearly 70% of the Global 500. Cohesity's portfolio is designed to support organisations in securing and managing data on-premises, in the cloud, and at the edge. The company also notes ongoing backing from technology partners across the sector, including NVIDIA, IBM, HPE, Cisco, AWS, and Google Cloud.

UAE employees outpace EMEA peers in cyber confidence, study reveals
The UAE workforce is ahead of its EMEA peers across several indicators of cyber-readiness, underscoring the country's progress toward its national vision for digital resilience and AI-enabled defence, a study showed. According to research by Cohesity, a company specialising in AI-powered data security and resilience, 86 per cent of UAE employees expressed confidence in recognising a cyber threat—compared to 81 per cent in the UK, 80 per cent in Germany, and just 62 per cent in France. Nearly nine in ten (89 per cent) UAE respondents also said they trust their organisation's ability to prevent and recover from attacks. Beyond awareness, the study reveals encouraging signs of action-oriented behaviour. Two-thirds of UAE employees say they would report suspicious activity to their cybersecurity team, showing an apt response, in comparison to respondents from the UK (61 per cent), Germany (53 per cent), and France (48 per cent). Amongst other UAE employees, over half would notify their IT department. This instinct to act is supported by ongoing education: 66 per cent have received some form of cybersecurity training in the past year. However, the research also highlights areas where further progress is needed. A small but notable group of employees say they would either attempt to resolve a threat on their own (15 per cent) or turn to personal contacts first (19 per cent), indicating a gap in internal reporting clarity, and a potentially risk to the entire organisation that mis-understanding of how important it is that reporting through the correct processes is critical to the quickest resolution of any potential risk of cyber attack . Among those hesitant to report incidents correctly, the leading reasons include fear of blame or confusion (46 per cent), a belief that it isn't their responsibility (27 per cent), and worry about overreacting (14 per cent). Johnny Karam, Managing Director and Vice President, International Emerging Region at Cohesity, commented: 'The findings reflect the UAE's clear leadership in cybersecurity readiness across the EMEA region. With initiatives driven by the UAE Cybersecurity Council and a strong national focus on AI and digital transformation, it's no surprise that employee awareness is rising in step with enterprise investment.' 'What stands out is not just awareness, but the willingness to act. The next step is closing the gap—equipping employees with the tools, clarity, and – perhaps most importantly - confidence to respond without hesitation. If we educate all employees of the serious risks to the organisation of not correctly reporting any potential cyber risks they see, encouraging a mentality that they will not get in trouble for doing so, and highlighting their individual capability to maximise the speed of response all UAE organisations can be more resilient. At Cohesity, we believe true cyber resilience is built on both technology and a culture of empowered people,' Karam added. The UAE's continued investment in cybersecurity infrastructure, most recently through advanced threat detection systems activated under the direction of the UAE Cybersecurity Council, demonstrates a firm national commitment to securing the digital landscape. The study shows that employees are already aligning with this vision: ● Two-thirds of the respondents have undergone cybersecurity training, with 39 per cent participating in multiple sessions in the past year. ● Over half (51 per cent) would report a suspicious incident to IT, while 67 per cent would notify a cybersecurity team, demonstrating a willingness to escalate issues through formal channels. ● 77 per cent are familiar with the term 'ransomware', showing widespread awareness of key threat types. Awareness of cyber threats is on the rise in the UAE, with 77 per cent of employees familiar with the term 'ransomware'. This strong baseline offers an ideal foundation to build upon. By expanding education beyond surface-level awareness to include real-world examples and practical training, companies can empower their teams with the confidence and clarity needed to respond effectively. While confidence in reporting and escalating potential ransomware threats within the organisation is high, the study reveals opportunities to further strengthen internal reporting behaviour. Around 15 per cent say they would attempt to resolve a threat themselves, and 19 per cent would first alert their personal contacts, These responses highlight a proactive mindset, which organisations can harness by further strengthening internal reporting protocols and promoting awareness of the appropriate escalation paths. Among the smaller group of employees who expressed hesitation in reporting a potential incident, the most common reasons included: ● UAE employees showed a strong sense of fear of blame or not understanding the issue (46 per cent), while EMEA employees had a more neutral perspective (UK - 26 per cent, Germany - 20 per cent, and France - 15 per cent). ● 27 per cent of the UAE respondents believed it wasn't their responsibility, showing a much bigger gap to appreciating their role in their organisations cyber safety as compared to their EMEA counterparts (UK -10 per cent, Germany - 12 per cent, and France 19 per cent). ● 14 per cent UAE employees feared overreacting, in-tune with 18 per cent of German respondents 15 per cent from the UK and 11 per cent of French respondents showing similar sentiment. With the UAE government actively advancing national cybersecurity capabilities and frameworks, the country is uniquely positioned to lead by example. Employees are ready and willing: confidence is high, training is widespread, and the instinct to act is evident. To fully unlock this potential, organisations must ensure that every employee, from the frontline to the C-suite, knows their role in safeguarding the business. Mark Molyneux, CTO, EMEA at Cohesity, added: 'These findings confirm what we're seeing across the region: employees are increasingly aware of cyber risks and are willing to step up, which is largely due to the UAE Cyber Security Council's approach to increasing security awareness across the Emirates. But this awareness must be matched with action. The future of cybersecurity will be defined by how quickly organisations can enable secure, informed decisions at every level. That means embedding cyber resilience into daily operations, investing in smart automation, closing the gap between detection and response, and instilling a culture that supports employees in raising concerns early in a safe space. In fast-moving threat environments, AI-powered data security is not a luxury, it's an operational necessity.'
