Veeam has put Veeam Intelligent ResOps for Microsoft 365 up for sale, an add-on to Veeam Data Cloud that pinpoints which sensitive data Copilot and AI agents can see in SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams, and Exchange, and lets administrators undo the changes those agents make. It’s the first product in the iResOps family to reach general availability. The company announced it on October 15, 2026, alongside private-preview versions for Veeam Data Platform and Okta, with others planned for GitHub and Azure DevOps.
Veeam iResOps for Microsoft 365 in 20 seconds
- A paid add-on to Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365, in Foundation and Advanced editions.
- Shows what data Copilot and agents can access and reverts their changes file by file.
- Okta and Veeam Data Platform are in private preview; GitHub and Azure DevOps are planned for the fourth quarter.
The launch is the first visible result of Veeam’s acquisition of Securiti AI, a data security and governance specialist Veeam announced in October 2025 for $1.725 billion and closed in December. The product combines Veeam’s backups with Securiti’s map of data, identities, and permissions, which Veeam calls the DataAI Command Graph. It connects to Veeam Data Cloud in a few clicks, without migrating data or changing the architecture, and can also be purchased through service providers in the VCSP program.
What it does in Microsoft 365
Veeam groups the features into five areas. The first is AI security: the product detects Copilot and the agents operating in the environment, shows what sensitive information each one can reach, and helps close excessive shared permissions. It also logs the changes an agent makes to files and lets administrators revert them with precision, without restoring an entire site or mailbox.
The second is regulatory compliance, with continuous discovery and classification of regulated data and of who or what can access it. The third tackles redundant, obsolete, or trivial data, known as ROT, which the product identifies and quarantines while the team decides whether to archive or delete it. Veeam presents this as a way to cut storage costs, though it doesn’t give savings figures.
The other two areas are minimum viable recovery, which checks that critical data is backed up, flags gaps before an incident, and shows where priority data sits during a crisis, and built-in agents that answer natural-language questions about data, access, AI agents, and backup status. That querying is restricted to authorized users.
Veeam hasn’t published pricing or licensing terms. To frame the product, the company cites its own Data Trust & Resilience Report 2026, according to which 88% of organizations use or are piloting AI agents, only 7% are genuinely prepared for AI, and more than 82% of large enterprises have unknown agents running in their environment. These are figures from a vendor-run study, with no sample details given in the announcement.
Okta, Veeam Data Platform, and GitHub still in testing
The rest of the iResOps family isn’t generally available yet. The Veeam Data Platform version, in private preview for select customers, connects existing backup servers to the Securiti console to search protected and production data, warn about servers running low on resources before they miss a restore point, and add three agents: a dashboard agent, a graph-exploration agent, and a backup-administration agent. It will accompany Veeam Data Platform 13.2, due for general availability in the fourth quarter, after version 13.1 expanded hypervisor support and ransomware recovery.
The Okta version, also in private preview, creates immutable restore points for 29 object types, including users, groups, applications, policies, and admin roles, and restores them with their relationships in the correct order. Veeam justifies the product by noting that Okta offers no point-in-time restore or version history, and keeps deleted users for only 30 days. For the fourth quarter, it plans private previews for GitHub and Azure DevOps, covering code, workflows, settings, and permissions, as well as for Google IAM.
What Veeam says
Anand Eswaran, Veeam’s CEO, sums up the shift in approach: “For twenty years, the resilience question was simple: can I recover?” Rehan Jalil, Securiti’s founder and now Veeam’s president of Product and Technology, argues that customers “don’t want tool silos with conflicting sources of truth” and that the goal is to protect “exactly what needs protecting” and recover “exactly what broke.”
Among the private-preview participants is a Canadian school board, the Renfrew County Catholic District School Board. Its systems analyst, David Robinson, says the tool helps them see access patterns and confirm they don’t have unnecessary exposure. Krista Case, principal analyst at theCUBE Research, notes in the announcement that gaps remain in monitoring agent activity, reconstructing their actions, and validating recovery. Veeam had already expanded its cloud offering this year with Vault Archive for long-term backup retention.
