Veeam Software has announced its definitive agreement to acquire Securiti AI, a top Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) provider recognized for cutting-edge solutions in privacy, access governance, and AI trust for hybrid, multi-cloud, and SaaS environments. This landmark $1.725 billion acquisition creates a powerful platform to help enterprises strengthen cybersecurity, unleash AI innovations, and achieve robust data privacy and compliance at scale.
Unified Data Resilience and Security Command Center
With Securiti AI joining Veeam, organizations can now seamlessly manage, secure, recover, and extract the full value of their structured and unstructured data assets—including sensitive emails, documents, and customer interactions—across cloud and on-premises systems. By integrating Veeam’s industry-leading backup, recovery, and data loss prevention technology with Securiti AI’s DSPM, privacy management, and AI governance tools, enterprise IT and security leaders gain an advanced single-pane-of-glass data management and security command center.
Addressing Enterprise AI, Cybersecurity, and Compliance Challenges
Today, the rise in cyberattacks, the complexity of regulatory compliance, and growing reliance on high-quality datasets for reliable artificial intelligence have made data protection and trust more critical than ever. Studies show up to 90% of enterprise AI initiatives fail, often due to data governance issues, privacy risks, and lack of lineage or access controls. Traditional, siloed data security and backup tools leave gaps in protecting against evolving AI-driven threats, forcing trade-offs between business agility and risk management.
Anand Eswaran, CEO of Veeam, emphasized that the future of data is not just about cyber resilience, but also about data discovery, dynamic governance, and ensuring data integrity for transparent AI and analytics.
Rehan Jalil, CEO of Securiti AI, highlighted that secure enterprise AI is impossible without robust data protection—a challenge Securiti AI addresses with its Data Command Center powered by a knowledge graph and agentic AI framework, automating privacy, security, and compliance.
By aligning Veeam’s DR platform with Securiti AI’s security automation and cloud compliance innovations, CIOs, CISOs, and CDOs can ensure near-zero downtime, secure recovery, and trustworthy AI model deployment. Following the deal, Jalil will become Veeam’s President of Security and AI, building on his legacy as a security trailblazer through successful startups like Elastica and WiChorus, and senior leadership at Symantec, Blue Coat, and Tellabs.
Unifying Data Security, Privacy, and Governance for Scalable AI
Industry experts recognize Veeam and Securiti AI’s integration as the breakthrough solution bridging the gap between data resilience, regulatory compliance, and adaptive AI security. The combined platforms enable advanced capabilities in identifying critical business data, monitoring usage, enforcing access controls, and maintaining context-rich audit trails—vital for protecting sensitive data, preventing unauthorized AI model access, and supporting real-time response to cyber threats.
As organizations deploy AI to gain a competitive edge, this unified platform enables safe, reliable, and efficient data management, ensuring data privacy, mitigating cyber risks, and driving business innovation. With enterprise-grade backup, recovery, and DSPM solutions, companies can confidently advance their digital transformation and AI strategies, knowing their data is secure, compliant, and poised for new opportunities.
