Veeam Software has unveiled its DataAI Command Platform at VeeamON 2026 in New York, introducing a new category of unified infrastructure designed to enable secure, governed, and resilient AI adoption in the Agentic Era.
Positioned as the missing layer in the modern AI stack, the platform integrates data security, resilience, governance, compliance, and privacy into a single architecture—bringing together data, access, identities, and AI systems to establish enterprise-wide trust.
The launch builds on Veeam’s acquisition of Securiti AI, combining advanced data and AI security capabilities with Veeam’s two decades of leadership in data resilience, supporting over 550,000 customers across 150+ countries, including a majority of Global 2000 enterprises.
Addressing AI Security Risks in the Agentic Era
As enterprises increasingly deploy autonomous AI agents, new cybersecurity risks are emerging. Industry trends indicate that AI agents now operate at machine speed, often with excessive privileges, significantly shrinking the window for threat detection and response. This shift makes data-centric security and governance critical for safe AI adoption.
According to CEO Anand Eswaran, while infrastructure for deploying AI already exists, trust infrastructure has lagged behind—a gap the DataAI Command Platform aims to close by embedding control directly at the data layer.
The platform introduces six integrated capabilities designed to secure enterprise AI ecosystems:
- DataAI Command Graph: A unified intelligence layer with 300+ connectors across cloud, SaaS, and on-premises environments, delivering granular visibility into sensitive data, access controls, and risk conditions across both live and backup systems.
- DataAI Security: Advanced data and AI security posture management powered by DSPM capabilities, integrating identity intelligence and resilience insights.
- DataAI Governance: Policy enforcement at the data source, ensuring both authorized and rogue AI agents cannot access sensitive information without proper controls.
- DataAI Compliance: Alignment with over 100 global regulations, including GDPR, HIPAA, NIST, EU AI Act, and DORA, with built-in audit readiness.
- DataAI Privacy: Real-time privacy enforcement using a unified identity intelligence graph across hybrid multicloud environments.
- DataAI Precision Resilience: Granular, surgical recovery capabilities that allow enterprises to fix specific issues without full system rollbacks.
Alongside the platform, Veeam Software also announced:
- Veeam Data Platform 13.1 (Preview)Veeam Intelligence ResOps for Microsoft 365DataAI Resilience Module for existing customersData and AI Trust Maturity Model, developed using insights from 300+ CIOs and CISOs
- The maturity model provides a structured framework across multiple dimensions to help enterprises assess their current AI readiness and build a roadmap toward secure and scalable AI deployment.
The launch of the DataAI Command Platform reflects a broader industry shift toward data-centric security architectures, where trust is embedded directly into the data layer rather than enforced at the application or agent level.
As AI adoption accelerates across industries, platforms like this are expected to play a critical role in enabling secure AI innovation, regulatory compliance, and cyber resilience, making them foundational to next-generation enterprise IT infrastructure.
