Summary of Week 35 – August 24-28, 2026
Commvault, a leader in unified enterprise resilience, announced a new integration with CrowdStrike that makes Commvault cyber recovery actions available as native steps within Charlotte Agentic SOAR workflows, enabling joint customers to automate recovery actions as part of security workflows to accelerate response and forensic investigations. This AI-driven automation helps organizations detect, investigate, and respond to threats at machine speed, while reducing manual coordination between security and recovery teams. The purpose-built connector allows security teams to incorporate Commvault recovery actions directly into Charlotte Agentic SOAR workflows. Key capabilities include: restricting access in Commvault to prevent unauthorized changes during active incidents; preserving clean recovery options by automatically suspending backup data aging policies to retain viable recovery points; and accelerating forensic investigations by restoring potentially compromised assets into Commvault Cleanroom for analysis without disrupting production systems. “Security and recovery teams need to move quickly and in coordination during an incident,” said Vidya Shankaran, Field CTO, Commvault. “Our integration with CrowdStrike Charlotte Agentic SOAR makes Commvault cyber recovery actions available directly within security workflows, helping joint customers reduce manual handoffs and accelerate investigation and response.” This integration follows previous Commvault-CrowdStrike collaborations: Falcon Insight XDR brought threat intelligence into Commvault Cloud, and Falcon Next-Gen SIEM extended visibility. The new Charlotte Agentic SOAR integration is available for joint customers through the CrowdStrike Marketplace. For more information, visit the Commvault and CrowdStrike joint partner page.
