The company’s software version 14.2 support for the Microsoft Corp.’s software suite empowers solution providers to lower cybersecurity threats targeting backup repositories with MS Office 365 data.

Protection of critical cloud-based application data for one of the most popular productivity suites, Office 365, ensures businesses have a strategy to make themselves harder to hack by increasing costs for threat actors and be able to recover important data lost to ransomware and reclaims control of business information residing within cloud infrastructure. As businesses increasingly seek the agility of cloud-based workforce productivity applications and platforms, many overlook potentially trade-offs to data protection. Key among these is that it is the organization’s or customer’s responsibility to protect the critical data in applications such as MS Office 365.

The firm’s Cloud Backup with Deep MFA allows users to schedule the creation of point-in-time backup copies of mailboxes and corporate data residing in Office 365 Exchange Online, Office 365 Groups, SharePoint Online, and OneDrive for Business – with no limitations on data volumes or number of mailboxes. Other capabilities include the assignment of backup frequency, retention duration and restoration granularity. Asigra’s cloud-based data protection platform deploys in MS Office 365 with ease to ensure reliable support and protection of SMB or enterprise instances of MS Office 365, providing business-class backup features.

Cloud Backup with Deep MFA provides the blend of enterprise data protection and cybersecurity to ensure BC in the event their primary data is maliciously encrypted or deleted from these increasingly aggressive attacks. With the company’s solution, all files are scanned in real-time with signature-less malware detection engines, isolating malicious code and alerting administrators of infection and preventing threats from penetrating backup and replication streams using ransomware detection engines.

In addition to direct assaults on backup data, Cloud Backup with Deep MFA also protects MS Office 365 vs. a new wave of immutability subversion attacks using step-up or Deep Multi-Factor Authentication as users access sensitive application controls. Deep MFA protects critical functions within the software that could compromise a recovery through corruption of policy settings or the backup data directly.

“The combination of Microsoft Office 365 with Asigra’s latest gen software gives MSPs and their business customers the tools required to protect recovery data as ransomware enters the network,” Eran Farajun, EVP, Asigra. “For cloud/SaaS apps like MS Office 365, the customer’s backup is the last line of defense in cases where an attack has occurred. Only a sophisticated anti-ransomware suite is capable of identifying and quarantining malicious ransomware code while preventing infiltration into backup controls to ensure data is well-defended.“
