Druva, a leading provider of data security solutions, announced Dru MetaGraph, a secure, tenant-specific, graph-powered foundation for real-time data intelligence, alongside two new DruAI Agents: Insights Agent and Lifecycle Agent. These innovations enable organizations to unlock actionable insights instantly, streamline decision-making, and respond faster across cybersecurity, compliance, and operational workflows.
Traditionally, backup intelligence has been constrained to static dashboards and fragmented reports, requiring teams to manually piece together insights or wait for days until analysts could provide relevant information. Dru MetaGraph transforms this landscape by making all backup metadata fully queryable, contextual, and actionable for AI. This shift elevates backup from a passive record-keeping system to an active intelligence layer that drives strategic decisions.
“Backup has always been an untapped goldmine of intelligence, and Druva has steadily unlocked that potential with our growing family of AI agents,” said Jaspreet Singh, CEO and co-founder of Druva. “With Dru MetaGraph and the new DruAI agents, we’re taking the next step and giving every team the ability to query and act on their metadata. This democratizes access to backup intelligence, extending its value beyond IT and security to functions like compliance and legal a major evolution in how backup drives resilience and business outcomes across the enterprise.”
Making Backup Data Actionable
Dru MetaGraph aggregates all backup metadata including file attributes, permissions, and identity information into a secure metadata layer powered by graph intelligence. Unlike traditional environments where metadata must be extracted, transformed, and loaded into separate systems, MetaGraph makes metadata immediately usable within the Druva platform, with end-to-end encryption and tenant-level isolation, at no additional complexity.
This architecture provides a single, queryable foundation for AI-driven insights. DruAI Agents can analyze metadata relationships and context in real time, helping organizations identify risks, optimize compliance reporting, and enhance operational efficiency without moving or exposing sensitive data.

Expanding the DruAI Fleet of Agents
The Insights Agent and Lifecycle Agent expand Druva’s growing suite of AI agents. The Insights Agent delivers real-time intelligence directly to dashboards and reports, converting complex data into prioritized insights. Users can quickly identify the most significant risks, anomalies, and trends, alongside recommended actions to prevent issues from escalating.
The Lifecycle Agent empowers organizations to analyze metadata across the entire data lifecycle from creation to archival and take targeted actions. Natural language queries allow teams to locate stale or non-compliant data, detect orphaned accounts, and enforce retention policies efficiently. Users can ask questions such as, “Show me data that is not compliant to PCI retention adherence,” and the Lifecycle Agent translates these into actionable insights via MetaGraph.
Additionally, the Lifecycle Agent can convert queries into dynamic visualizations and dashboards, enabling personalized monitoring of compliance, risk, and operational trends. These capabilities significantly reduce time-to-insight, providing IT and security teams with the context needed to act decisively.
Industry Recognition
“Having all our backup metadata in one secure place has completely changed how fast my lean team can operate,” said Chris Robinson, VP/Cybersecurity Director at Finance Factors. “Instead of stitching together manual reports, the MetaGraph and AI agents give us instant answers across risk, compliance, and operations.”
“Enterprises understand they have a collection of rich metadata captured in their backups, but they’ve struggled to make any use of it,” said Johnny Yu, Research Manager, Infrastructure Software Platforms at IDC. “By combining SaaS-native architecture, tenant-specific data graphs, and AI agents, Druva is addressing long-standing challenges of siloed metadata and complex pipelines, turning backup into a dynamic intelligence layer and shifting it from an insurance policy to playing an active role in resilience, compliance, and decision-making.”
Secure by Design, Built for Scale
Dru MetaGraph and all DruAI Agents operate entirely within the Druva platform, analyzing metadata only and never accessing the customer’s actual data. Each tenant has an isolated MetaGraph with end-to-end encryption and compliance with global standards, including FedRAMP, SOC2, and GDPR. Private retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and isolated large language models (LLMs) ensure accurate, context-aware responses while maintaining strict data privacy.
