Commvault Introduces Real-Time Governance Controls to Extend Enterprise Resilience to Structured and AI Data

Commvault, a leader in unified resilience at enterprise scale, is expanding its data and AI security capabilities within Commvault Cloud, enabled via its recent acquisition of Satori.

According to the company, the advancements extend data discovery, classification, and risk assessment into structured data environments and introduce real-time access governance for structured databases, including vector databases used in AI applications.

These innovations expand Commvault’s existing data security posture management (DSPM) functionality for unstructured data, while data access governance adds real-time control of structured data access.

These advancements also unify visibility by identifying sensitive data, surfacing exposure and policy violations, and consolidating risk insights to help organizations prioritize remediation based on impact, the company said.  

The Commvault Cloud platform delivers broad data discovery, classification, and policy enforcement across structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data in hybrid and multi-cloud environments. The new advancements include:

• AI-enabled classification capabilities: Automatically identify and classify sensitive data across the enterprise, highlighting environments with high concentrations of sensitive data, excessive access, or data that has been retained longer than intended.
• Data access governance: Monitor and control how structured data is accessed and used, helping to reduce the risk of data leakage, including via AI models or generative AI outputs.
• Enhanced resilience via Commvault Cloud: Unifying data visibility and access controls directly into cyber resilience and cyber recovery workflows enables organizations to reduce data risk before an incident and recover more effectively afterward.

“As organizations expand into cloud and AI-driven environments, sensitive data is increasingly distributed across structured and unstructured systems,” said Yoav Cohen, vice president of product management at Commvault and co-founder of Satori. “Without clear visibility and real-time access controls, that data can become overexposed and difficult to manage. By extending discovery and governance into structured data environments, we are helping organizations reduce unnecessary exposure and strengthen resilience across both live and backup data.”

Data access governance capabilities focused on real-time control of structured data access are available now via single sign-on from Commvault Cloud. It is also commercially available as an add-on to any Commvault Cloud package.

Structured data discovery and classification capabilities within Commvault Cloud are targeted for general availability (GA) in late summer 2026. These capabilities extend Commvault’s DSPM functionality for unstructured data, which is available now as part of the Commvault Cloud Platinum package or as add-ons to other tiers. Pricing details for the structured data capabilities will be announced closer to GA.
