FortKnox is a SaaS cyber vaulting and recovery solution that improves cyber resilience with an immutable copy of data in a Cohesity-managed cloud vault via a virtual air gap.
Data powering business operations is more valuable than ever. It is also more vulnerable than ever to cybersecurity threats, power outages and natural disasters. This reality has forced organizations to rethink their approaches to the 3-2-1 strategy of backing up data - three copies of data, on two different media, with one of them in an off-site environment. Although a traditional air gap model where data is stored on magnetic tapes and moved off-site for data isolation ensures data security in the face of increasing ransomware attacks, it impedes rapid recovery which prevents teams from achieving stringent service-level agreements -SLAs. To stay competitive while protecting data, enterprises are embracing a modern 3-2-1 strategy that includes a virtual air gap with physical separation and network isolation and provides both secure and highly available data.
Cohesity FortKnox powers this modern 3-2-1 strategy for the cloud era, balancing your organizations security and agility priorities. FortKnox provides an additional layer of security against ransomware and other cybersecurity threats through physical separation, and network and operational isolation. FortKnox dramatically simplifies operations and lowers costs, eliminating the complexity and resource requirements of internally managed isolation solutions. FortKnox is a cloud service that empowers organizations to prepare for and recover quickly and confidently from attacks with granular recovery back to the source or an alternate location, including the AWS cloud.
Highlights
Additional protection layer safeguards data and reputations - FortKnox is an integral part of the multilayered Cohesity Threat Defense architecture built on the notion of least privilege and segregation of duties with granular Zero Trust security principles. These include role-based access (RBAC), encryption, multi-factor authentication (MFA), a WORM lock policy and a quorum rule that requires at least two employees to approve any critical actions.
As-a-service consumption simplifies operations and lowers costs - In a pay-as-you-grow service that keeps costs down, FortKnox empowers organizations to simply connect, vault, and recover data. No need to worry about deploying and maintaining DIY data vaults or the associated cloud storage or egress costs, as they are covered in the FortKnox subscription.
Rapid recovery saves time and improves business continuity - FortKnox delivers fast, granular recovery of data back onsite or directly to the cloud, enabling enterprises to be more agile. Unlike legacy backup and air gap solutions, FortKnox simplifies the recovery of specific files and objects quickly - without having to restore whole data volumes.

This listing uses contract-based pricing built around two units. The FortKnox unit covers cyber vaulting and recovery, which isolates backup copies in an immutable, air-gapped environment for clean, verified restore. The importantmessage unit is not a separate priced feature. It clarifies that your actual entitlement follows the terms attached to your agreement, not this private offer. You buy through a committed contract rather than pay-as-you-go usage. Confirm quantity and scope with the attached terms, since those define what you are entitled to use.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What counts as one FortKnox unit for billing?
The marketplace listing does not fix a public per-unit definition. Your actual entitlement follows the terms attached to your agreement, as the importantmessage unit notes. Confirm with the vendor what one unit maps to, such as capacity protected or data vaulted, since the attached terms define your scope.
Does the FortKnox unit charge change when my vaulted data sits idle in cold storage?
The listing prices FortKnox on a committed contract, not on live usage. You pay for the entitlement defined in your attached terms, not for hour-by-hour activity. Vaulted copies held in an immutable, air-gapped environment do not trigger separate usage charges under this contract model.
Why is importantmessage listed as a priced unit if it isn't a real feature?
The importantmessage unit is not a separate product you buy. It flags that your true entitlement comes from the terms attached to your agreement, not from this private offer's figures. Treat it as a notice, and rely on the attached terms to confirm quantity and scope.
