Ransomware attacks are no longer a matter of “if,” they’re a matter “when.” At Rubrik, we work together with our partners, to help organizations achieve cyber resilience from the inevitability of cyber attacks. We rely on a network of specialist partners who have built practices around delivering Rubrik Zero Trust Data Security solutions to our customers across diverse verticals and industries. 

In recognition of the outstanding work all of our partners do around this critical work with our customers, I am thrilled to announce the winners of the 2022 Rubrik Partner Recognition Awards. Our partner ecosystem is the lifeblood of Rubrik and the value these partners bring to customers is tremendous. It is an honor to shine a light on the great work of our partners, and our combined efforts toward our mission to secure the world’s data.

In recent years, cyber criminals have increasingly targeted backups. In response, organizations have prioritized updates of business continuity and disaster recovery plans (BCDR), and they are looking for easy, yet reliable solutions that allow them to detect, protect, and recover valuable and sensitive data. 

Our partners are helping our customers realize the power of Rubrik Zero Trust Data Security that prevent attackers from discovering and encrypting backups, obtain full visibility over applications and data, and remain compliant with regulations including GDPR and HIPAA – all critical in the fight against ransomware and keeping businesses running. 

On behalf of the entire organization, Rubrik thanks and congratulates the following winners of the 2022 Rubrik Partner Recognition Awards.
