Partnership between Cohesity and Semperis to Enhance Cyber Resilience and Identity Security
New Solution Enhances Cyber Resilience for Active Directory Assets
In a move to bolster defense against cyber threats, Cohesity and Semperis have unveiled a new solution called Cohesity Identity Resilience. The announcement was made during the Catalyst 1 Data Security Summit in Santa Clara, USA, on September 17 and 18, 2025.
According to Cohesity CEO Sanjay Poonen, the solution delivers a modern, proven approach to help organizations protect the foundation of their digital operations and remain resilient. The solution is now available for purchase.
Active Directory plays a significant role in many enterprise IT environments, managing authentication and access to critical systems, applications, and data. When Active Directory is compromised, attackers can gain unrestricted access to IT resources, leading to ransomware infections, data theft, and prolonged business disruptions.
To address this issue, Cohesity Identity Resilience provides protection and recovery for Active Directory across hybrid environments. The solution enables users to protect and secure on-premises Active Directory and extends those safeguards to Microsoft Entra ID in the cloud.
The solution offers proactive Active Directory hardening, enabling scans for indicators of exposure, risk assessment, remediation guidance, and identification of potential attack paths. It also provides secure, immutable backups with cyber vaulting capabilities for consistent backup and recovery workflows.
In addition, Cohesity Identity Resilience offers specialized identity forensics and incident response capabilities to cleanse the system of attack artifacts and ensure the restoration of Active Directory to a trusted environment. It enables rapid and secure recovery of Active Directory forests after an attack or catastrophic failure, minimizing downtime.
Scott Harrison, director of hybrid infrastructure solutions at CDW, sees Cohesity Identity Resilience as a solution that directly addresses the issue of prolonged business disruptions caused by Active Directory compromises. He believes that the solution will help enterprises strengthen defenses, recover quickly, and maintain confidence in their core identity systems.
Cohesity remains committed to supporting partners and enhancing their success, as demonstrated by their recently launched partner program. The collaboration between Cohesity and Semperis to develop the Cohesity Identity Resilience solution is a testament to this commitment.
The new solution, Cohesity Identity Resilience, integrates Semperis' Active Directory technology with Cohesity Data Cloud, providing a streamlined path to protect against and recover from sophisticated identity-based attacks. With this solution, organizations can protect and recover the source of authority for objects synchronized across their entire Active Directory and Entra ID identity landscape.
In conclusion, Cohesity Identity Resilience is a valuable tool for businesses seeking to enhance their resilience and protect their Active Directory assets from potential threats. By providing proactive hardening, secure backup and recovery, and specialized incident response capabilities, the solution helps organizations minimize downtime, recover quickly, and maintain confidence in their core identity systems.
