Elastio

Elastio (also referenced as Elastio Software) is a cybersecurity company that operates at the data layer, inspecting the contents of enterprise data to detect ransomware, malware, insider manipulation and custom indicators of compromise, and to establish which recovery points are verifiably clean. Its stated premise is that prevention, endpoint and cloud-posture controls do not examine what is inside stored data, leaving a gap in which encrypted or infected data can persist into backups and be reintroduced during a restore. The company categorizes its product area as Data Detection and Resilience (DDR).

The platform centers on "Elastio Hunt," an agentless deep file inspection engine that opens and inspects files across three surfaces: live data (AWS EC2/EBS, Azure VMs, S3, Azure Blob, IBM COS, NetApp FSxN/ONTAP, Qumulo), replicated data (cross-region replicas, AWS DRS, Azure Site Recovery, NFS/SMB exports, snapshot replication) and backup data (Veeam, Commvault, Cohesity, Rubrik, NetBackup, AWS Backup, Azure Backup, Recovery Services Vaults, air-gapped vaults, bunker accounts, immutable storage). Hunt runs inside the customer environment so that data does not leave the network, while findings are sent to the Elastio Console (SaaS or private cloud) and routed to SIEM tools including Splunk, IBM QRadar and Datadog. Deployment documentation covers AWS, Azure, IBM Cloud, VMware, Nutanix, Hyper-V and Proxmox.

Two outputs are emphasized: identification of the "Last Known Clean" recovery point and a clean boundary per asset, and a "Resilience RPO" metric measuring the gap between the present moment and the last proven clean recovery point, contrasted with a conventional backup RPO that only measures copy frequency. Recovery features include curated, file-level restores that separate clean from compromised data, integration with backup vendors to initiate recovery, and an audit trail/recovery attestation intended for boards, regulators and cyber insurers. The company publishes ransomware research and maintains a security center where its researchers analyze new ransomware families.

Business model

Elastio sells enterprise software deployed as a control that runs inside the customer's own network (Elastio Hunt) with findings streamed to an Elastio Console delivered as SaaS or in a private cloud. The product is positioned as vendor-neutral and platform-agnostic, working alongside rather than replacing existing endpoint, cloud and backup tooling, which allows it to be sold as an add-on security control to organizations that already own backup and EDR/XDR products. Sources describe partnerships and channel relationships with AWS, Deloitte, IBM, NetApp and Atayo, and one third-party profile cites an estimated $5M in revenue.
