Effective ransomware protection
Your backup is your best chance to recover after a ransomware attack, so it’s crucial to have a good backup of all your important data – including SaaS data in Microsoft 365. Microsoft offers features, including the recycle bin, but it is not meant to be used as a backup and recovery solution. That’s why Microsoft recommends using a third-party backup for Microsoft 365, such as Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup.
Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup not only makes it easy to find and restore the data you want; it also offers important features, including immutable storage, to protect the data against modification or removal, except through the secure Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup interface. Your data is further protected by security features, including Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), 5 levels of role-based access control that determine who can do what, and end-to-end encryption.
Malware detection on restore provides additional protection as it scans data before it is restored to production systems. It’s important that malware is detected before it is restored because even if you’re using native detection from Microsoft and Barracuda Email Protection, malware may have been backed up before it was a known issue. This way, Cloud-to-Cloud Backup can stop the newly discovered malware from being restored, someone interacting with it and triggering a ransomware attack or other threat.
Malware detection uses Barracuda Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) to scan the data, looking for malware so that it can prevent it from being restored along with good data. Barracuda’s ATP is powered by Barracuda’s Global Threat Intelligence that incorporates millions of data points and analysis for the best protection.
