Rubrik is honored to again be named to the Forbes Cloud 100, the annual ranking of the top private cloud companies in the world. This list is comprised of some of the most respected and fastest-growing companies globally. We’re humbled to be alongside these innovative brands and to make this prestigious list for the sixth year in a row!

“The companies of the Cloud 100 list represent the best and brightest private companies in this fast-growing sector,” said Alex Konrad, senior editor at Forbes. “Every year, it gets more difficult to make this list — meaning even more elite company for those who do. Congratulations to each of the 2022 Cloud 100 honorees.”


As the pioneer in Zero Trust Data Security™, this recognition underscores Rubrik’s continued cybersecurity momentum. A critical component of our success is the recent announcement of Rubrik Security Cloud, which secures customers’ data wherever it lives, across enterprise, cloud, and SaaS.  

With the ever-looming threat of increasingly sophisticated cyber criminals, coupled with the consistently growing number of attacks, it’s never been more imperative to prioritize a strong data security posture. Here’s why:

Infrastructure Security Alone Isn’t Enough. Cyber Resilience Requires Data Security.

Ransomware is the biggest cyber threat to our economy and our digital lives, forcing organizations to rethink their cybersecurity strategy. Bad actors are getting smarter, more easily compromising perimeter security defenses and going directly for backup data. They see ransomware as a lucrative business model knowing businesses keep paying ransoms to avoid downtime, perpetuating this vicious cycle.

Infrastructure security – protecting your endpoints, parameters, networks, etc. – is an important part of protecting your business, but it’s not a holistic approach. Fundamental resiliency comes from securing your data, because if your data is secure, you can rebuild your business in the event of a cyberattack. That’s why Rubrik is focused on securing our customers’ data.

“Zero Trust” Is A Must 

Rubrik was built with a Zero Trust architecture from the very beginning to help keep our customers’ data safe. A Zero Trust design ensures that all users, admins, network traffic, and application interfaces are authenticated so our customers can be confident their data is protected and can be easily recovered after a cyber attack – a critical component to keeping businesses up and running.

But don’t just take our word for it. Check out these case studies to hear directly from our customers on how they walked away unscathed from ransomware attacks.
