Druva Expands DruAI with Agentic Workflows, Deep Analysis Agents

Druva today (Feb. 24) announced an expansion of its DruAI platform, introducing Deep Analysis Agents and new agentic workflow capabilities aimed at automating complex forensic, compliance and operational investigations.

Details are outlined in the company's official announcement and companion blog post.

The release advances DruAI beyond what Druva previously positioned as a conversational copilot. "IT teams are drowning in evidence collection and manual reporting," said Stephen Manley, CTO at Druva. "This release turns AI from a conversational assistant into a partner that completes work. We are enabling teams to delegate multi-day investigations to agents that finish in minutes and deliver a final report that can be immediately shared with security, compliance, or operations teams."

Deep Analysis Agents and 'Notify Me' Workflows
At the center of the update are Deep Analysis Agents -- long-running agents designed to break investigations into steps, coordinate across systems and synthesize findings into a consolidated report. Druva said investigations that previously required two to three days of manual effort can now be completed in approximately eight to 10 minutes, with output formatted for direct use by security, compliance or operations teams.

A new "Notify Me" workflow allows users to trigger a deep analysis and let it run in the background. Once complete, DruAI emails a synthesized report, reducing the need for interactive sessions during extended investigations.

The enhancements are built on Dru MetaGraph, described in the blog as Druva's tenant-specific, graph-powered intelligence layer designed to understand relationships across backups, identities, configurations, telemetry and audit artifacts. The company said this foundation enables DruAI to move from answering individual questions to executing multi-step investigative workflows with continuity and context.

Druva, which specializes in cloud-native data security, protection, and recovery across enterprise environments, also introduced Agentic Memory, which allows DruAI to retain short-term session context and structured long-term organizational knowledge. According to the company, this enables cognitive continuity across sessions and semantic learning of organization-specific terminology. The result is role-aware and preference-aware output tailored to IT administrators, security operations center analysts and compliance officers.

The blog post cites adoption metrics for DruAI, reporting more than 3,000 active customers, over 17,000 total conversations and a 67% case resolution rate. Druva said usage has contributed to a 12.6% quarter-over-quarter drop in support case volume, equivalent to 550 fewer cases.

The update also adds multimodal capabilities, allowing users to upload screenshots of error messages, alerts, configuration pages or other system behavior directly into the console. DruAI interprets the image and provides guided troubleshooting steps, extending analysis beyond log files and metadata.

The announcement included a customer perspective from Goodwill Industries of the Valleys. "For the first time, we have an AI tool that delivers actionable insight right out of the gate," said Hunter French, senior vice president for Impact Services at Goodwill Industries of the Valleys. "It analyzes weeks of log data and surfaces findings we can immediately put to work, saving hours of compliance reporting and manual review."

Druva said the new capabilities are generally available.
