ENHANCEMENT
Minimize Downtime with Fully Automated Active Directory Forest Recovery
đNOTE: The availability of this feature may be limited based on the license type, region, and other criteria. To enable this feature, contact support.
Recover an entire Active Directory (AD) environment with minimal manual interaction through a fully automated orchestration setup. In a disaster scenario, this enhancement upgrades previous guided, runbook-based steps into a zero-touch, orchestrated workflow. This eliminates the need for extensive manual intervention, accelerating return-to-operation timelines and significantly reducing costly downtime compared to traditional recovery methods.
With this feature, administrators can:
Automate complex workflows: Execute end-to-end AD forest recovery automatically without stepping through manual blueprints.
Accelerate recovery timelines: Speed up the return-to-operation process during a disaster scenario when every second counts.
Reduce human error: Minimize manual intervention during high-stress disaster recovery events.
This enhancement significantly improves operational efficiency, disaster recovery performance, and business continuity timelines.

NEW FEATURE
Protect Microsoft Active Directory with Druva
Experience a unified identity protection suite that secures both on-premises Active Directory and Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) from a single platform. This new capability ensures that administrators have access to clean, immutable backups to restore from if an on-premises environment is compromised, helping to prevent identity-based lateral movement by attackers.
With this feature, administrators can:
Secure the entire identity perimeter by covering both on-premises Active Directory and Entra ID within a single interface.
Restore individual objects, attributes, or containersâsuch as accidentally deleted users or altered Group Policiesâwithout taking the entire domain controller offline.
Utilize guided workflows to recover an entire Active Directory Forest following catastrophic events like ransomware attacks or site failures.
Significantly improve the Mean Time to Recovery (MTTR) during major service disruptions.
This update enhances overall compliance and disaster recovery performance by providing a robust, immutable backup solution for hybrid identity infrastructures.
Customer Action Required: To enable this feature, administrators must have an Enterprise license for Microsoft Active Directory and should contact the support or sales team to activate data protection for their account.
To begin using Druva's comprehensive solution for Microsoft Active Directory, refer to the following documentation:
