New Feature
Backup Amazon RDS Airgap Data Across AWS Regions
We are excited to announce enhancements to Druva’s Airgap Backup capabilities for Amazon RDS, allowing you to backup RDS data across AWS regions. Enable cross-account and cross-region backup to enhance resiliency and ensure data recovery. Experience greater flexibility in selecting your encryption keys, with better access control to manage keys across multiple AWS accounts.
Customer action required: A backup policy configured for RDS Airgap Backup is executed only when a corresponding Storage Rule is available. Cross-region backup automation via storage rules applies exclusively to newly created RDS instances, and existing protected instances will not inherit these rules automatically. For more information, see Configure Storage Rules.
Amazon EFS
Announcing EFS Data Protection
❗ Important
This feature is currently available under the Early Access program. To know more about the Early Access program and sign up for this feature, contact Support or your Account Executive.
We are excited to announce the launch of Druva Amazon EFS Protection, a cloud-native data protection solution specifically designed for Amazon Elastic File System (EFS). As organizations increasingly move production workloads to EFS, Druva provides a secure, air-gapped backup and recovery framework that ensures your data remains resilient against ransomware, accidental deletion, and regional outages.
Why Druva for Amazon EFS?
While AWS offers native backup tools, Druva elevates your data strategy by moving backups into an isolated security domain. This ensures that even if your primary AWS environment or IAM credentials are compromised, your backup data remains untouched and recoverable.
Key Capabilities
True Air-Gapped data protection: Minimize the threat of data loss by isolating your Amazon EFS data in an air-gapped, secure cloud, ensuring your business remains resilient against ransomware and internal threats actors.
Zero-footprint cost efficiency: Eliminate the hidden infrastructure costs Druva’s Quantum Bridge architecture. Druva utilizes on-demand instances that provision and terminate automatically, drastically reducing operational overhead and AWS costs.
Precision recovery at scale: You don't always need to restore the whole system. Perform file-level searches and restores for specific folders or individual files, or recover the entire file system when needed.
Instant data discoverability: With advanced metadata search, you can scan across multiple backup sets using file names or wildcards. This eliminates the manual effort of mounting multiple snapshots just to find a specific version of a file.
Slash storage costs: Maximize your ROI with global deduplication. By identifying and storing only unique data blocks across your AWS environment, Druva optimizes your storage footprint and ensures long-term data retention remains sustainable.

New Feature
Recovery Intelligence for EC2 Airgap Backups
Integrate advanced threat hunting capabilities into your recovery workflow, to identify non-impacted snapshots and eliminate the risk of re-infecting your environment.
Sanitize your recovery data before you even click Restore. With Recovery Intelligence, the Cyber Recovery workflow is integrated into your EC2 and EBS restore interface, offering real-time, recovery-focused insights that empower you to recover with confidence.
Pre-Recovery Threat Hunt: Every recovery now includes an option to perform a threat hunt, helping you pinpoint clean snapshots backups for a successful restore.
Recovery Intelligence: Gather insights into the health of your snapshots with automated intelligence that populates critical data about each restore point.
Integrated Restore Scans: Before committing to a restore, perform a Cloud-based IOC (Indicator of Compromise) scan and AV (Antivirus) scan on your selected restore point to verify it is free of malware.
For more information, see Restore EC2 and EBS backups with Cyber Recovery.
Customer action required:
To view and access the Recovery Intelligence feature, you must have either a Security Posture & Observability, Accelerated Ransomware Recovery, or a premium license.
