Company details

Cohesity, founded in 2013, is an enterprise data management company headquartered in San Jose, CA, and led by founder and Chief Executive Officer Mohit Aron. Its software handles data backup, protection, recovery and secondary storage workloads, and is designed to address what the company describes as Mass Data Fragmentation across enterprise environments. In December 2024, Cohesity completed its merger with Veritas' enterprise data protection business, creating a data protection provider with a combined customer base of more than 12,000.

The company has raised capital from prominent investors including Madrona, Coatue, Sapphire Ventures and NVIDIA. In September 2025, CNBC reported that Cohesity is targeting a potential initial public offering in 2026, once it has a full year of results from its December 2024 Veritas merger. Publicly traded competitors include Rubrik (RBRK), Commvault (CVLT) and NetApp (NTAP).

These comments should not be interpreted to mean that the company is formally pursuing or foregoing an IPO.
