At Rubrik, we rely on a multi-tenant architecture to store customer metadata in a large fleet of Cloud SQL database instances. With numerous production deployments globally, each supporting multiple customer accounts, maintaining high availability, performance, and robustness across this infrastructure is critical. Managing a large fleet of Cloud SQL instances and ensuring they remain resilient and performant has been a journey filled with valuable lessons.

We are often asked how Rubrik Security Cloud differs from AWS Backup. It's a valid question because, at first glance, the two solutions seem similar. Both have cloud-first, API-driven architectures. Both are built specifically to ensure reliable backup and recovery for data stored across AWS. Both support a wide range of the most popular AWS workloads including EC2, EBS, S3, RDS and EKS.

Organizations want to stay on top of cyber threats and detect them even before they occur. To do this, they need to detect threats and anomalies in their networks as quickly as possible. This is what we call threat hunting. It is a tool to help organizations constantly monitor their networks to detect and mitigate threats to keep them at a distance.

“It takes 18 days on average for organizations to recover from a ransomware attack” – IBM Cost of a Data Breach Report 2024. The clock starts ticking as soon as ransomware hits your network. Attackers no longer rely solely on opportunistic phishing; they now attack weak network defenses, move laterally across systems, and encrypt important data before demanding a ransom. Traditional security solutions sometimes notice breaches too late to adequately detect threats.

The long-anticipated CMMC rule (CFR 32) is now live, marking a crucial turning point for defense contractors. The Compliance Team at CISO Global recently passed our CMMC Audit and are well on the way to becoming a CMMC Certified Third-Party Assessor Organization, or C3PAO. Although CMMC’s arrival brings new challenges, there’s a practical solution that can make compliance more manageable: enclaves. Before we explore this approach, let’s understand where we are in the CMMC journey.
