Protect Your Office 365 Data

Protecting Office 365 data is more important today then ever before. The reason is quite simple; growth of the Office or Microsoft 365 platform is exploding. In the 3rd quarter of 2023, Office 365 users generated more than 38 billion collaboration minutes in a single day.

Did You Know...

Common Misconception

Microsoft is not responsible for backing up your Office 365 data and if you use Office 365 archiver, it is not your backup. Microsoft says that you need 3rd part backup for O365 in their Service Agreement.

Microsoft Service Agreement (MSA):

"We strive to keep the Services up and running; however, all online services suffer occasional disruptions and outages, and Microsoft is not liable for any disruption or loss you may suffer as a result. In the event of an outage, you may not be able to retrieve Your Content or Data that you've stored. We recommend that you regularly backup your Content and Data that you store on the Services or store using Third-Party Apps. "

-Microsoft Services Agreement, Section 6B

Native Retention Is Complex

Microsoft’s native retention polices can be complex. See the image below. Email has a 14- or 30-day retention, OneDrive and SharePoint up to 93 days in some cases. Teams has another set of retention rules.

When you look at these retention policies is a 3 months max going to be long enough? What happens when the CEO needs something that was deleted 94 days ago?

With Cloud-to-Cloud Backup, both SharePoint and OneDrive can be restored on a granular basis. Microsoft only allows restoration of an entire instance, which can be a problem if you are only looking to restore an item or 2.
