Hello, everyone, and welcome to the Data Recovery Summit. We are absolutely thrilled to have you with us today. I’m Alok Agrawal, Chief Solutions Officer at Rubrik. We have an incredible agenda ahead backed with new cyber recovery strategies, technical deep dives and major product announcements that we simply cannot wait to share with you.
I want to start by acknowledging something we don’t say out loud enough. The role of IT has fundamentally changed. Now I’m risking oversimplification when I say this: it is no longer just about systems uptime. With the escalating threat landscape from disasters to ransomware and the looming risks of AI, the role of IT is now critical to organizational and business survival.

But amidst the chaos, the Board, the CEO and the shareholders turn to you with paralyzing questions. Can we recover the data? What is the damage? How long will it take to recover? What is the plan? And if you are the one answering those questions, you will live through 1 of the 2 contrasting outcomes. The panic mode, chaos, fumbling, lengthy disruptions, reputation damaged; or the resilience mode calm and confident execution, crisis avoided, business is online. This isn’t about buying a tool. It is about deciding which of those two time lines you want to live in. It is about being the hero your organization will need
