Cloud Backup FAQ

  • Having data in a cloud-based SaaS solution like Microsoft 365 doesn’t necessarily protect you from threats. In order to truly protect your data in the cloud – especially in an era of increased remote work scenarios - you need a cloud backup solution. Data loss can occur from any number of causes – from accidental deletion to malicious attacks like viruses and ransomware. Furthermore, Microsoft’s own recommendation is for end users to leverage a 3rd party data protection solution like Cloud Backup to extend the native data retention policies of Microsoft 365. With a solution like Cloud Backup, small business customers can thus quickly and accurately recover from unfortunate data loss incidents involving this productivity data with minimal disruption, mitigating possible data loss costs.

  • Using cloud-based services can offer customers significant advantages with regards to scalability, cost, productivity, and efficiency, among others. However, the cloud still poses security risks for users, as viruses, ransomware, and other data breach risks can still impact user data in the cloud. In fact, analysts point to the fact that 32% of businesses are impacted by data loss in the cloud at some point, with the most common causes being user error (64% of cases) and malicious attacks (20%). With the increase in remote working environments, because of the COVID-19 outbreak, phishing scams have increased significantly. In a single week, Google reported an average of 18 million COVID-19 phishing emails sent per day.**

  • Cloud Backup complements native data protection features in Microsoft 365 by providing up to six automated backups per day across the Microsoft 365 tenant. Coverage includes user data found in Exchange, SharePoint, OneDrive for Business, and Microsoft Teams. It protects data with unlimited storage and retention, and maintains productivity with rapid search and one-click restore that empowers customers to quickly recover from data loss or corruption.

  • Cloud Backup storage is in Microsoft Azure, and you can determine the storage location, based on two options available for each subscription:

    • Use Deltaform’s Azure Server: If you decide to use Deltaform’s default Azure server, you can select the location of the data center where the backup will be housed, including US, Australia, Canada, Europe, Hong Kong, Japan, North Europe, Singapore, UK West, UK South, West Europe, France, Germany, Norway, South Africa, and Switzerland.

    • Bring your own Azure storage: You can also select your own Azure tenant or a customer’s Azure tenant for the data storage.

  • Yes, Deltaform Cloud Backup conforms to all [HIPAA/GDPR] requirements of a Business Associate.

  • Deltaforrm Cloud Backup retains all data from deleted users. The data can be restored to a public or shared mailbox, or to another user.

  • There is no limit to how much user mailbox data is backed up in Deltaform Cloud Backup, nor is there a time limit to how long it is retained, provided your customers maintain an active subscription.

  • The time it takes to restore varies on the amount of data restored. Individual items can take as little as a couple of minutes while full mailboxes can take multiple hours depending on how much data is being restored.
