ControlMonkey

Profile

The Cloud Configuration Resilience Platform that helps organizations protect and recover the cloud configurations their business depends on. ControlMonkey continuously discovers cloud and SaaS configurations, captures versioned recovery points, monitors configuration drift, and enables fast, governed recovery after outages, ransomware, human error, or misconfigurations. By combining automated configuration backup, change intelligence, disaster recovery workflows, and governance into a single platform, ControlMonkey helps teams reduce operational risk, accelerate recovery, and maintain business continuity across modern cloud environments.

Focus

ControlMonkey closes one of the biggest gaps in modern disaster recovery: recovering the cloud configurations that traditional backup solutions don't protect. While native cloud backups and SaaS recovery capabilities focus primarily on data and service availability, ControlMonkey continuously protects infrastructure, networking, identity, security, and SaaS configurations that define how environments operate. Through automated discovery, versioned recovery points, configuration change tracking, and policy-based recovery, ControlMonkey enables organizations to recover trusted cloud states quickly, minimize downtime, reduce configuration drift, and strengthen operational resilience across complex hybrid and multi-cloud environments.

Background

ControlMonkey was founded in 2022 by experienced cloud engineers who previously built a successful cloud technology company acquired by NetApp. After years of helping enterprises manage cloud infrastructure at scale, the founders recognized a growing resilience challenge: organizations could often restore data but struggled to recover the cloud configurations that keep modern environments running. They created ControlMonkey to bring disaster recovery to cloud and SaaS configurations through continuous discovery, automated backup, change visibility, and governed recovery. Today, ControlMonkey provides a unified platform for Cloud Configuration Resilience, helping organizations protect critical cloud services, identity platforms, networking, security controls, and SaaS applications while reducing recovery time and operational risk.

ControlMonkey main features‍

Continuous Configuration Discovery

Automatically discovers cloud and SaaS configurations across supported platforms, continuously maintaining an accurate inventory of infrastructure, networking, identity, security, and application settings without manual effort.‍

Versioned Recovery Points

Continuously captures protected, versioned snapshots of cloud and SaaS configurations, creating trusted recovery points that enable fast restoration after accidental changes, outages, ransomware, or operational failures.‍

Configuration Change Intelligence

Tracks every configuration change across cloud environments, providing complete visibility into what changed, when it changed, who made the change, and how it impacts connected systems before recovery decisions are made.‍

One-Click Configuration Recovery

Restore trusted cloud and SaaS configurations from versioned recovery points through governed recovery workflows that minimize downtime, reduce operational risk, and improve business continuity across modern cloud environments.
