Commvault and CloudSEK have just reached an agreement to develop a joint alliance that helps companies stop the rise of identity-based cyberattacks, an increasingly critical problem in the field of cybersecurity in Spain and globally. The integration combines intelligence on credentials exposed on the dark web with advanced Active Directory protection capabilities to detect and neutralize risks before they become real breaches.
Identity, new attack surface
According to data cited in the announcement, nearly 80% of security breaches involve compromised credentials, while more than 24 billion stolen credentials circulate today on dark web markets and clandestine forums. The rise of AI-powered attack automation has reduced the time between credential exposure and exploitation from months to hours, requiring a more proactive response from enterprises.
How the new integration works
The solution integrates CloudSEK’s real-time intelligence on credentials exposed on the dark web directly into Commvault’s tools for Active Directory vulnerability assessment, advanced auditing, and anomaly detection. By correlating external exposure signals with internal identity telemetry, security teams can identify exposed accounts and disable, lock or reset compromised credentials, as well as reverse malicious changes before they escalate to ransomware or data breaches.

Risk prioritization and proactive approach
Vulnerabilities detected from internal, public, and dark web sources are automatically scored and prioritized, accompanied by clear remediation guidance so teams focus on the most critical issues. The heads of Commvault and CloudSEK emphasize that this collaboration allows us to move from a reactive model, based on simple detection, to a proactive one that interrupts attack avenues before adversaries can exploit them with the help of artificial intelligence.
Improve cybersecurity in Spain
Integration with CloudSEK will be available this summer at no additional cost to customers already using Commvault Active Directory Vulnerability Assessments and Active Directory Advanced Audit and Anomaly Detection solutions, with options to upgrade to the full CloudSEK suite. Commvault presents itself as a leading provider of unified enterprise-scale resilience, while CloudSEK positions itself as the reference platform in predictive cyber threat intelligence for CISOs and security teams who want to anticipate and neutralize attack paths before damage is realized.
