Commvault to acquire data security firm Satori Cyber

TINTON FALLS, N.J. - Commvault (NASDAQ:CVLT), a $7.39 billion market cap company with impressive gross profit margins of 82%, announced Thursday its intention to acquire Satori Cyber Ltd, a data and AI security company, in a move to strengthen its cyber resilience platform.

The acquisition, expected to close in August 2025, will add capabilities for monitoring and protecting sensitive data across cloud-native databases, data warehouses, and AI systems. According to InvestingPro data, Commvault has maintained strong financial health with robust revenue growth of 18.63% over the last twelve months, positioning it well for strategic acquisitions.

Satori’s technology provides real-time, agentless controls for platforms like Snowflake, Redshift, Databricks, and Microsoft Fabric. The company specializes in data discovery, classification, and access management for structured data, as well as large language model monitoring and prompt protection.

"By integrating Satori’s real-time, agentless controls and deep visibility into structured and AI training data, we’re extending our cyber resilience into the data layer," said Rajiv Kottomtharayil, Chief Product Officer at Commvault.

Eldad Chai, CEO and Co-Founder of Satori, noted that the integration will offer customers "a unified approach to securing sensitive data and AI pipelines - from discovery to governance and from access management to cyber recovery."

The deal comes as enterprises face increasing challenges with AI adoption, data growth, and regulatory pressures across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.

Frank Dickson, IDC Group VP of Security and Trust, stated that Satori’s "multi-cloud data activity monitoring, data discovery, and policy enforcement controls will enhance Commvault’s ability to help clients simplify compliance efforts to mitigate security and privacy risks."

Commvault, which serves more than 100,000 organizations, did not disclose the financial terms of the acquisition in its press release statement.
