Financial institutions face some of the most complex data protection challenges of any industry. High-value data, strict regulatory requirements, sophisticated cyber threats, and an uncompromising need for uptime all demand a modern approach to resilience. Working together, Cyber Advisors and Druva empower financial services organizations to strengthen data protection, streamline compliance, reduce operational risk, and build long-term resilience in a rapidly evolving threat landscape.
What Is Druva?
Druva is a fully cloud-native data protection platform designed for modern, cloud-first enterprises. Built entirely on Amazon Web Services (AWS), Druva eliminates the need for physical hardware, software patching, and manual upgrades. Instead, it delivers backup, disaster recovery, ransomware protection, and compliance as a unified SaaS solution.
With billions of backups processed annually, Druva is trusted worldwide for its reliability, simplicity, and security. The platform provides logically air-gapped, immutable backups, centralized protection across endpoints and hybrid workloads, and predictable consumption-based pricing. Combined with Druva’s Data Resiliency Cloud Guarantee, organizations gain confidence that they can recover quickly and effectively from disruptions—an essential capability given the rising frequency of cyberattacks targeting the financial sector.
Strengthening Financial Data Security With Proven Cloud Protection
Data security is fundamental to the financial industry. Customers trust their institutions to safeguard highly sensitive information, and regulators enforce strict requirements to ensure that trust is upheld. Meanwhile, cybercriminals increasingly target financial data because of its value and potential for exploitation.
Druva is engineered for these high-stakes environments. Its use of immutable, logically air-gapped backups ensures that stored data cannot be altered, encrypted, or deleted—even if attackers compromise production systems. Built on AWS and available in a FedRAMP Moderate Authorized GovCloud environment, Druva helps financial institutions align with stringent federal and industry security standards.
As threat actors become more sophisticated, Druva equips financial services organizations with modern, cloud-based protection that evolves with the threat landscape.
Modern Business Continuity Through Automated Backup & Rapid Recovery
Downtime in financial services can result in missed transactions, service outages, regulatory exposure, and lasting reputational harm. Traditional backup tools often struggle to support fast recovery across distributed environments, slowing business continuity efforts when they matter most.
Druva addresses these challenges with automated, high-speed backup and recovery capabilities that span endpoints, SaaS platforms like Microsoft 365, critical applications, and hybrid workloads. With a single SaaS platform replacing multiple legacy tools, financial organizations reduce vendor complexity and operational burden.
Clients who have adopted Druva consistently report:
-
Significantly faster recovery times
-
Simplified, centralized data oversight
-
Reduced infrastructure and maintenance requirements
-
Faster response to disruptive events, including ransomware attacks
By consolidating protection under a unified cloud platform, financial institutions gain the agility needed to maintain service continuity even during large-scale disruptions.
Streamlined Compliance for Financial Institutions
Financial organizations must comply with an array of regulations governing data protection, privacy, retention, and auditability—such as GLBA, SOX, SEC 17a-4, FINRA rules, GDPR, and, for certain workloads, FedRAMP requirements. Meeting these standards can be resource-intensive, especially with disparate data sources and siloed systems.
Druva simplifies compliance through:
-
Automated retention and policy enforcement
-
Continuous monitoring across data types and locations
-
Immutable audit trails
-
Centralized oversight for reporting and governance
-
Availability in FedRAMP Moderate Authorized GovCloud environments
With these capabilities, financial services organizations can demonstrate compliance confidently and efficiently while reducing the risk of costly violations or data exposure.

Financial institutions manage a diverse and complex technology landscape—often blending legacy systems with modern cloud platforms. Druva's cloud-native architecture integrates smoothly with existing IT and cybersecurity tools, allowing organizations to enhance resilience without overhauling their infrastructure.
Key advantages include:
