T-Systems Switzerland are launching a new sovereign offering for backup, recovery and cyber resilience that is specifically tailored to the requirements of Swiss companies with Cohesity. The offering combines Cohesity’s cyber resilience platform with the cloud and managed service expertise of T-Systems Switzerland. This delivers a backup-as-a-service offering, operated in Switzerland, that can be used across in cloud and on-premise environments.

“There is a particular added value in the operating model of the solution,” says Iwan Martin, Head of Portfolio Unit Cloud at T-Systems Switzerland. “Companies can use the services both in existing on-premise environments and as a cloud-native solution.”

The platform can be operated entirely on T-Systems’ cloud infrastructure without customers having to procure or operate their own backup hardware.

Deployed and operated via Swiss data centres, the solution supports business requirements for data protection, compliance and regulatory control. Companies and public institutions thus benefit from a modern, scalable solution that optimally combines data security, flexible implementation and supports compliance with regulatory requirements.

Cyber attacks are one of the greatest business risks for companies and public institutions today. It is crucial that critical data can be restored quickly, securely and in a controlled manner in the event of an emergency. This is exactly where the joint solution from T-Systems and Cohesity comes in: it helps companies maintain their business continuity even in the event of an emergency.

“Our integrated data platform provides comprehensive data security and cyber resilience as a secure foundation for this combined service offering,” said Ralf Damerau, Country Manager Alps at Cohesity. “Building on this, AI-powered anomaly detection, threat scanning and automated data classification help companies identify cyber threats early and respond to them in a targeted manner. In the event of an emergency, the platform not only shows that an attack is taking place, but also which systems have been affected since what point in time and from which clean recovery point the data can be reliably restored for disaster recovery.”
