Commvault Purchases Satori Cyber to Strengthen Data Security Support
Commvault Acquires Satori Cyber to Bolster Data and AI Security
Commvault, a leading cyber resilience and data protection solutions provider, has announced its intention to acquire Satori Cyber, a data and AI security company. The acquisition, expected to be finalized in August 2025, aims to strengthen Commvault's capacity to help enterprises manage the complexities of data and AI security in hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
According to Eldad Chai, CEO and Co-Founder of Satori, the acquisition will extend Commvault’s existing cyber resilience platform, which primarily covered unstructured data, into the structured data and AI layers. This integration will enable deeper visibility, better access control, and smarter governance across distributed environments.
The acquisition will bring Satori’s cloud-native, agentless innovations for data security and AI-aware protection and recovery. Notably, Satori's technology includes features for monitoring large language models (LLMs) and automating the management of structured data.
The impact of this integration is significant, particularly in terms of compliance support, risk reduction, and sensitive data management, including LLMs.
Compliance Support
Satori’s platform provides automated discovery, classification, masking, and policy enforcement for structured data within cloud-native platforms including Snowflake, Redshift, Databricks, and Microsoft Fabric. This helps enterprises meet rising regulatory compliance demands by tracking and controlling how sensitive data is accessed and used across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
Risk Reduction
Real-time data activity monitoring and AI-specific security features such as LLM monitoring and prompt protection reduce risks associated with AI adoption and data sprawl. Enterprises can detect unauthorized or risky data uses and enforce governance policies consistently across complex data landscapes.
Sensitive Data and LLM Management
The combination allows control over how data flows into and is consumed by AI training pipelines, including LLMs, by monitoring prompt activity and securing AI model data usage. This is crucial for protecting sensitive information in AI-driven processes and preventing exposure or misuse in large language model environments.
In summary, the acquisition bridges a critical gap in Commvault’s capabilities by extending its cyber resilience into the data layer, offering enterprises unified, agentless protection and governance across structured data and AI ecosystems. This enables secure and compliant innovation with AI in increasingly complex hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
Rajiv Kottomtharayil, Chief Product Officer at Commvault, plans to incorporate next-generation AI capabilities into Commvault's cyber resilience platform. The integrated AI capabilities will offer a unified approach to securing sensitive data and AI pipelines from discovery to governance, access management, and cyber recovery.
The acquisition aims to enhance Commvault's ability to help enterprises address AI adoption, data growth, and regulatory compliance in hybrid and multi-cloud environments. This integration aims to reduce risk and drive compliant innovation.
