Data is essential to the future of your business. While compliance rules are adding to the complexity of operations, protecting information against loss, theft or destruction is an absolute necessity. And as your data estate expands, backing up that data can be a major technical challenge.

Microsoft 365 Backup
A common misconception is that Microsoft backup M365 data as part of your subscription, but this is not the case. Microsoft takes care of the infrastructure but backing up your data remains your responsibility.
To ensure your data is protected, it’s crucial to implement a reliable solution to back up your entire Microsoft 365 suite from mailboxes to SharePoint and OneDrive. By using Ekco Microsoft 365 Backup, risks are mitigated, and you enjoy the peace of mind that you can restore data when needed.
Why back up Microsoft 365 data?
To be clear, Microsoft 365 is not inherently unsafe and does offer some level of protection however once data is deleted (mistakenly or otherwise), the clock starts ticking before it’s gone forever. We know the average length of time from data compromise to discovery is over 140 days, yet default settings for Office 365 only protect for 30-90 days.
