Microsoft is a global software giant. It provides the software many companies use daily. Their main priority is to keep the continuity of the provided services and protect cloud data. But despite that, there is still a possibility of data loss, due to countless reasons. Accidental data deletion is a significant risk factor leading to data loss, emphasizing the importance of implementing backup solutions to safeguard against such occurrences. Protecting cloud data is crucial to ensure continuity and compliance. That’s one of the causes you might consider protecting your data in Office 365, and one of the best ways to make sure your data is secure is to perform an Office 365 backup. In this article, we will talk about a few of the best practices when it comes to it.
Read moreUnderstanding Your Role in Microsoft Office 365 Shared Responsibility Model
In a traditional on-premises data center, the organization that owns it is responsible for managing security incidents, including the mitigation and remediation of any dangerous incident. On the other hand, if the company uses Infrastructure-as-a-Service offerings (Azure, AWS), security for infrastructure is the cloud provider’s responsibility. In the Software-as-a-Service model, specifically in the Microsoft 365 suite, Microsoft is responsible for maintaining the infrastructure and making sure data is available and accessible while users are responsible for protecting their Microsoft 365 data. It means the user is responsible for restoring lost, stolen, deleted, or compromised data and it should be quite logical and obvious. In the end, it’s the user’s data, right?
Regardless of the cloud deployment types, the customer retains ownership of their data and identities and is responsible for their security, while the cloud service providers manage other operational aspects. This framework helps clarify the shared responsibilities involved in using cloud services. Understanding the Microsoft 365 Shared Responsibility Model is particularly important as it outlines the division of responsibilities between Microsoft and businesses regarding data protection and security.

What is Backup Software?
Backup software is designed to protect users from unexpected data loss by creating a copy of files, folders, or even entire systems. This backed-up data can be stored locally, in the cloud, or across multiple devices, offering different levels of security and convenience. A reliable backup solution ensures your data is safe from threats like hardware failure, cyberattacks, or system crashes.
Key factors to consider when selecting backup software include integration with cloud storage, ease of use, and multi-device compatibility. Modern backup tools offer features such as encryption, incremental backups, and automated scheduling to streamline the backup process.
