Since the COVID-19 pandemic forced businesses to work from home where possible, it’s been hard to avoid the messaging around Cloud solutions. Microsoft, Zoom, Google and many more have all been pushing their communication and collaboration solutions. A high proportion of businesses rely on Public Cloud services such as Microsoft 365 and Google’s G Suite for email, file storage and document collaboration. In doing so we put trust in these Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solutions to look after our business data. Whilst the Cloud is known for being always available, accessible from anywhere and highly redundant, business owners mustn’t overlook the need for a Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solution.
How can Cloud content be compromised?
While cloud-based applications like O365 are very secure environments, they cannot protect your data from the #1 cause of loss and corruption: your employees. Every day data in the cloud is compromised as a result of:
- Accidental deletion by users
- Malicious deletion
- Hackers
- Ransomware
If your business fell victim to one of the above threats and your data in the Cloud was compromised, could you recover it?
So, what’s the solution?
There are a number of cloud backup solutions out there but here at Bristol IT we recommend Datto SaaS Protection. Datto’s solution allows you to protect, control and easily recover Office 365 and G Suite data. Unlike similar solutions, with Datto you get backup of all applications within Office 365 (Exchange, Tasks, OneDrive, SharePoint and Teams) or G Suite (Gmail, Calendar and Contacts) under one subscription priced per user per month.
Key Features of Datto SaaS Protection
- Automated 3x a day backup of your most important apps
- Automatic archiving of deprovisioned users
- Recovery from ransomware in the cloud
- SOC 2 Type II Compliance and HIPPA compliance support
- Protection of business-critical cloud data
