Commvault's automated failover and failback capabilities enable seamless disaster recovery operations, minimizing downtime and ensuring business continuity. This is essential for companies prioritizing robust disaster recovery plans in their virtualized environments.

Commvault's integration of backup scheduling and policies ensures data integrity by maintaining the consistency and compliance of backup policies across the backup environment. This integration guarantees efficient backup operations and adherence to data protection standards.

AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is a symmetric encryption algorithm used to secure sensitive data. It uses a single key for both encryption and decryption, making it efficient and widely adopted for securing data at rest and in transit.

Audit logging in Commvault involves tracking user activities and changes made to data, allowing administrators to monitor who accessed what data and when, aiding in compliance with data protection regulations and ensuring data security.

Endpoint Protection typically includes features like data backup, device encryption, and network monitoring. However, antivirus and anti-malware scans are typically part of Endpoint Protection solutions.

Commvault provides robust encryption and key management solutions to safeguard data during integration with multiple cloud storage providers. By implementing encryption and managing access keys securely, organizations can ensure data privacy and compliance with regulatory requirements.

Commvault employs techniques like incremental backups and global deduplication to minimize the amount of data transferred during backups, thus reducing resource consumption. This approach is more efficient than full backups and ensures that only changed data is backed up, saving both time and storage space. While other options may improve performance, they don't directly address resource utilization.

Granular recovery options enable restoration at the file-level for precise recovery. This means that individual files or data elements can be recovered without restoring entire systems or volumes, offering flexibility, efficiency, and reducing the impact of data loss on operations.

The organization can configure the backup policy using the Grandfather-Father-Son (GFS) strategy, which retains monthly backups for a long-term period, aligning with the requirement of seven years retention. GFS ensures efficient management of backups over time.

Capacity planning is vital in data management as it optimizes storage utilization, ensuring that resources are efficiently used. It helps in maintaining data availability, especially during peak usage times, by allocating resources effectively. This process also aids in reducing data redundancy and improving overall data security.
