Case Study: The University of Exeter achieves faster recovery and stronger cyber resilience with Rubrik Security Cloud

Secure and Resilient with Rubrik Security Cloud

The University of Exeter, serving 30,000 students and 4,500 staff, needed a more secure and resilient way to protect critical data across a complex legacy backup environment made up of four separate solutions. Its existing tools were difficult to manage, slow to restore, and increasingly challenged by evolving security and compliance requirements. Rubrik Security Cloud was selected to replace the fragmented setup and better support the university’s cyber resilience goals.

Rubrik implemented a single cyber resilience platform with features including Enterprise Data Protection, Sensitive Data Monitoring, Anomaly Detection, Threat Monitoring, and protection for unstructured data. As a result, The University of Exeter reduced restore time by 50%, improved data security, and gained the ability to restore critical systems and data within minutes, helping maintain service continuity and compliance. Rubrik also simplified daily operations with a single-pane-of-glass experience and strengthened the university’s NIST compliance maturity.
