Previously, Nehru spent several years at ServiceNow, where he served as vice president of global partnerships and channels. During his tenure, he helped drive sustained annual growth in the company's global partners and MSP business while establishing large-scale collaboration frameworks to support artificial intelligence initiatives with global partners.
Alok Agrawal, Rubrik's chief solutions officer, said Nehru's experience building and executing global go-to-market strategies would help accelerate the company's efforts to support organizations navigating increasingly complex cybersecurity environments.
"Nehru’s unique capability to design and execute integrated, global Go-to-Market strategies that deliver massive revenue at scale makes him an invaluable asset. His expertise with GSIs and MSPs will be pivotal as we help the world's largest and most regulated organizations secure their data and maintain their Minimum Viable Business,” Agrawal said.
Nehru said businesses are experiencing a major shift as they integrate AI technologies while facing heightened cyber risks. He noted that system integrators are positioned to play a key role in helping organizations develop secure and resilient AI infrastructures.
“The launch of Rubrik Agent Cloud for Anthropic's Claude and Project Hourglass marks a defining milestone for AI governance. Alongside our premier launch partners – Cognizant, Deloitte, HCLTech, LTM, NTT DATA, and Wipro – we are enabling GSIs to deploy autonomous agents with resilience engineered from day one. I look forward to working with our ecosystem to build unified resilience frameworks that defend AI pipelines and turn data recovery into a powerful business accelerator,” Nehru said.
The appointment comes as organizations worldwide face growing challenges in recovering from cyberattacks. According to Rubrik Zero Labs, only 28 percent of organizations surveyed in 2025 said they believed they could fully recover from a cyber incident within 12 hours or less, down from 43 percent in 2024.
