## Key takeaways

- HashiCorp, an IBM company, validated Cohesity Data Cloud's cloud rebuild capabilities with Terraform Self-Managed, the first cloud recovery method IBM has validated for that platform.
- Cloud rebuild is available now as part of Cohesity Data Cloud Enterprise Edition, and existing Data Protect or NetBackup customers can upgrade to gain access.
- Cohesity's 2026 Global Cyber Resilience Report, a Vanson Bourne survey of 3,200 security and IT decision-makers, found 83% of surveyed organizations said their recovery plans would need moderate or significant changes to handle AI-driven attacks.

[Cohesity](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/00003ka/cohesity) said on October 27, 2026 that HashiCorp, an [IBM](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/0000337/ibm) company, validated the interoperability of Cohesity Data Cloud's cloud rebuild capabilities with Terraform Self-Managed, letting organizations rebuild cloud applications after a cyberattack. The announcement was published by [PR Newswire APAC](https://en.prnasia.com/story/553315-0.shtml). Cohesity said this is the first cloud recovery method IBM has validated for interoperability with Terraform Self-Managed.

## How Cohesity Cloud Rebuild Works With Terraform

Terraform Self-Managed is a self-hosted platform for defining and managing cloud infrastructure as code. Under the validated approach, Terraform recreates the compromised declared configuration, and Cohesity Data Cloud then restores the latest usable application data from backup. Cohesity said cloud rebuild reads applications through Terraform's official interface and runs customers' code unchanged, and that administrators can integrate it into existing incident response and recovery workflows.

Cohesity said its 2026 Global Cyber Resilience Report, a Vanson Bourne survey of 3,200 security and IT decision-makers, found that 83% of surveyed organizations said their recovery plans would need moderate or significant changes to handle attacks that use AI to find and exploit software weaknesses, while 3% said their plans are ready today.

"Attackers using AI move faster than any team can rebuild by hand," said Vasu Murthy, chief product officer at Cohesity. "Organizations have already codified exactly what their cloud environments should look like in Terraform. Cohesity uses that code to recreate the declared configuration, then restores the latest usable application data from backup."

Tyler Lynch, Outbound CTO for Automation at IBM Software, said: "We worked with Cohesity to validate how our technologies work together when they use Terraform state to recover cloud applications, the infrastructure they run on, and the data as part of the recovery process."
