Cloud Data Protection for Microsoft 365: Backup, DLP and 3-2-1
Protect data in Microsoft 365 using practical cloud backups, immutable storage, and the 3-2-1 rule across SharePoint and OneDrive.
Your business data lives in Microsoft 365 — but Microsoft's shared responsibility model means backup is on you. Deleted emails, ransomware, and rogue admin actions can take SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams content with them.
Why Microsoft 365 needs its own backup
Microsoft keeps your service available, but it does not keep long term point-in-time backups of your data. Accidental deletion, malicious insiders, and ransomware that encrypts cloud files all fall outside what Microsoft will restore.
The 3-2-1 rule still applies in the cloud
- 3 copies of your data.
- 2 different media (for example, a second cloud tenant and immutable object storage).
- 1 copy offsite and offline, out of reach of the same attacker.
What to look for
- Immutable, air-gapped backups ransomware cannot rewrite.
- Granular restore down to a single email, file or site.
- Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policies that stop sensitive files leaving the tenant.
- Alerts on mass deletion and unusual sharing.
We back up Microsoft 365, SharePoint and OneDrive to a separate, immutable store and monitor for risky sharing — so a click or a breach never becomes a permanent loss.
