Backups

Microsoft won't back up your data. We will.

Most businesses assume their email and files in Microsoft 365 are safe by default. They're not. We add a true, independent backup — with fast restores, long retention and data loss prevention built in.

Backups

Deleted, encrypted or gone — recoverable in minutes.

An accidental delete, a ransomware hit, or a departing staff member clearing out their mailbox — without an independent backup, that data can be gone for good. We make sure your worst day is a quick restore, not a catastrophe.

Backup done properly

Restore, retain and protect.

Restoration

Fast, granular restores

Recover a single email, file or whole mailbox in minutes — not a frantic day of guesswork — from a daily independent backup.

Retention

Long-term retention

Keep your Exchange, SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams history for years, meeting audit and insurer requirements with ease.

Data loss prevention

Stop data walking out

DLP policies and sensitivity labels that keep confidential data where it belongs — and flag it before it ever leaks.

What a real backup gives you

  • A daily, independent backup of all Microsoft 365 data, retained for years
  • Granular restore of a single item or an entire account in minutes
  • Protection against accidental deletion, ransomware and departing staff
  • Retention policies that satisfy auditors and cyber insurers
  • Data loss prevention catching confidential data before it leaves

Common questions

Doesn't Microsoft already back up my data?

Microsoft keeps your service running and offers only short retention windows. Their shared-responsibility model makes protecting your actual data your job — a separate backup is the only reliable way to recover from deletion or ransomware.

How fast can you restore?

Usually within minutes for a single item, and hours for a large recovery — from a backup kept entirely separate from your live Microsoft 365 tenant.

Does this help with cyber insurance?

Yes — independent backups and retention are core controls underwriters now require, right alongside MFA.

Consider IT Done

Sure your Microsoft 365 data is actually recoverable?

We'll check what's protected today and show you the gaps — before you find them the hard way.
