Enterprises Keep Rebuilding What Their Protected Data Already Holds
Enterprises are adopting AI across multiple providers, often rebuilding data pipelines and protection strategies for each environment. Yet much of the information these systems need already exists in protected backups spanning cloud platforms, on-premises systems, databases, and file shares.
In this research brief, Moor Insights & Strategy Vice President and Principal Analyst Mike Leone examines how protected enterprise data can serve as a shared foundation across AI stacks. He explores Cohesity’s approach, the potential to reduce duplication while preserving access controls, and the growing need to protect and recover AI agents’ memory, settings, and history. The brief outlines why enterprises should evaluate this foundation as core AI infrastructure.
