Commvault, a provider of cyber resilience and data protection solutions for the hybrid Cloud, has introduced Data Rooms, a secure environment that enables enterprises to safely connect their trusted backup data to the AI platforms they rely on, or to their own AI initiatives, such as internal data lakes. By combining governed, self-service access with built-in classification and compliance controls, Data Rooms bridges the gap between data protection and data activation, helping organisations transform backup data into AI-ready assets without adding new risk or complexity.

As enterprises accelerate AI adoption, many still struggle to make their data both accessible and trustworthy. In fact, nearly three quarters of IT leaders say using AI makes their organizations more vulnerable to cyberattacks. Trust is at the core of responsible AI — trust that sensitive data remains confidential, governed, and compliant as it’s ready for use. Yet, the process of identifying, preparing and exporting data from multiple sources into a single source through the traditional extract, transform and load (“ETL”) workflow, remains time-consuming and can introduce compliance risks when not properly governed.

With the new Data Rooms offering, authorised users can locate and prepare data directly from backup repositories across on-premises and Cloud environments. Built-in governance helps maintain control so that approved, access policy-compliant datasets can be safely shared and exported, with classification, sensitivity tagging and audit trails automatically applied. Additionally, Data Rooms operate within Commvault Cloud’s zero-trust architecture, leveraging role-based access controls (RBAC) and encryption at rest and in transit. These safety measures can give organizations confidence that their data remains protected, governed and traceable from backup to activation.

By integrating directly with Commvault Cloud, Data Rooms gives authorised users governed access to files, emails and objects across environments. It automates data discovery and classification, simplifying the creation of curated, AI-ready datasets. As enterprises move from data protection to data utilization, Commvault preserves data trust, and supports compliance and readiness throughout the activation process.

“Organizations are beginning to realie that their historical data is more than just insurance, it’s a powerful, untapped strategic asset,” said Pranay Ahlawat, Chief Technology and AI Officer at Commvault. “With Commvault Data Rooms, enterprises can confidently export their secondary data and harness it with the AI platform of their choice to unlock new opportunities for intelligence, innovation and business growth.”
