Traditional cybersecurity is dead.
Talk to an expert to apply these new rules to your resilience strategy.
Thank you, a Rubrik representative will be in touch soon.
Cybersecurity was built on a bet: prevention tools and human teams, fast enough to catch it, contain it, recover from it. That bet is losing now — breakout time is down to 29 minutes on average, 27 seconds at the fastest. AI can now execute nearly the full attack chain. Recovery was built for a world where there was time to figure it out after the fact; that world is gone. AI Resilience replaces the reactive scramble with continuous readiness and autonomous action.
Security and recovery were built for a human-speed world — detecting threats, identifying what's clean, restoring systems step by step. A human-speed playbook setting the pace of response.
Attacks are autonomous. AI is everywhere. Acting on data, identities, infrastructure — faster than any human-speed playbook can respond. Every assumption built for human speed has to be rewritten for machine speed.
The New Rules for AI Resilience
Each one assumes the old playbook is not enough anymore — and shows what resilience looks like in its place.
Don’t ask a human to outrun a machine.
Human-speed playbooks for investigation and recovery worked when attacks took days. Attacks now take minutes, sometimes seconds. Investigation and recovery must run at machine speed. Humans set the plan; machines carry it out.
"To shift from a reactive mentality to an 'assume-breach' posture, PACCAR chose Rubrik as its comprehensive cyber resilience platform."
Miguel Zatarain,
Director of Global Infrastucture Technology, PACCAR
Result
Reduced recovery time from 16 hours to 2 hours
Start recovery before the attack happens.
Recovery that started after the attack worked when there was time to contain and assess the damage. Attacks now break out in minutes, sometimes seconds. Recovery must start before the attack, with clean restore points and recovery sequence mapped in advance.
"It’s no longer a matter of if, but when…and Rubrik has fundamentally shifted the cybersecurity paradigm at EōS from a focus on prevention to cyber resilience."
Aaron Gette,
CIO, EoS
Result
Sub 2-hour recovery; preserved $120M in risk avoidance; single page of glass platform
Assume your agents will overreach.
Human access is role-based and trusted. Agents act on outcomes and can touch systems beyond their boundaries, faster than human-speed defense can react. Agent governance has to match that speed: guardrails that stop or contain the action as it happens, and a rollback that rewinds the action.
"AI adoption is outpacing our ability to control it. Enterprises are struggling because they've deployed systems they can't fully observe, govern, or restore."
Kavitha Mariappan,
Chief Transformation Officer, Rubrik
Statistic
According to research by Gartner, 33% of enterprise software applications will include agentic AI by 2028.
Start every cyber recovery with identity.
Recovery plans restored identity as infrastructure, assuming it could be trusted. With AI-assisted phishing, attackers now get in through identity more easily, and stay in. Restored apps and data are useless if no one can log in, and unsafe if the attacker still can. Recovery must start with identity.
"Threat actors know that compromising domain controllers gives them the keys to the kingdom. With Rubrik Identity Recovery, we can restore AD to a clean, point-in-time state within hours—not days—ensuring authentication remains intact even during the most severe incidents."
Steven Ramirez,
CISO, Renown Health
Result
AD/Entra ID recovery cut from 24 hours to under 3 hours
The new rules are built for the AI world.
Rubrik helps organization operate — and recover — at the speed the new world demands.
