Cohesity, the leader in AI and data security, today announced that Cisco has named it the “Top Durable Growth and Innovation Partner” in the Cisco SolutionsPlus program for the second straight year.

Cohesity earned the recognition for sustained multiyear revenue growth, customer success, its contribution to Cisco technology and product sales, deep integrations with Cisco solutions, and the number of Cisco Validated Designs supporting joint solutions.

“Cohesity’s impact this year reflects what a strong partnership with Cisco can achieve: helping customers solve specific business challenges that lead to tangible outcomes,” said Rob Riordan, Senior Director of Ecosystem Acceleration, Cisco. “Cohesity brings customers proven data security and cyber resilience on Cisco infrastructure, helping them protect what matters most and keep their businesses running.”
