Why you need backup for Entra ID.
Entra ID is a cloud-based identity and access management service that is used to provide and track who has access to any internally developed or third-party SaaS applications your organization uses, such as Microsoft 365, Azure, or other applications. If your Entra ID data is not available for any reason, your workforce will not be able to access these resources, leaving your organization at a standstill. It is essential to have a secure backup of your most critical data, including Entra ID.
Recover your data with reliable ransomware protection.
Attackers know that Entra ID data is crucial to keeping organizations up and running, so they specifically target it. They know that if they lock or destroy Entra ID data, you are more likely to pay a ransom quickly. They also know that Microsoft only retains Entra ID data for 30 days. Restoring an Entra ID instance without a backup is difficult and time-consuming. That is why Microsoft recommends backing up Entra ID as part of their shared responsibility model. With Entra ID Backup, organizations can restore data from any desired point in time, surpassing Microsoft’s maximum retention period of 30 days and leaving attackers empty-handed.
Quickly recover from ransomware.
Entra ID Backup includes unlimited storage and retention.
