Ransomware and Data Protection for Google Workspace
Ensure that you can access, control, and most importantly protect the data you entrust to the cloud.
As companies increasingly move data into cloud-based applications, many IT teams think traditional best practices like data backup are unnecessary. After all, a SaaS application is always available, accessible from anywhere, and highly redundant, so why is backup needed?
Google Workspace (also known as G-Suite) and other applications are susceptible to ransomware attacks. Most strains of ransomware target both Google and Microsoft productivity apps and documents whether they are stored locally or in Sharepoint/OneDrive/Google Drive.
Our team has partnered with Dropsuite, one of the leading cloud-to-cloud backup tools; offering an all-in-one backup, archiving, restore and export solution.
How Can We Help Protect Your Business?
Point in Time Backups
Up to 12x Daily snapshots for user data, avoid data loss from ransomware by restoring entire accounts to a designated point in time before an attack occurred.
Item level restore
Retrieve data in the original format with file and label structure maintained in the backup.
Security and compliance
Dropsuite backs up data in compliance with Service Organization Control (SSAE 16 and SOC2 ) reporting standards.
Why have Backups?
Data loss due to ransomware
Some of the most high-profile ransomware attacks that have occurred recently have been in Microsoft 365 environments. Encrypting your data and preventing you from accessing your data.
Data loss due to permanent deletion
When a SharePoint Online administrator deletes a site collection, all data will be placed in the Recycle Bin where it is kept for 93 days. At that time it is automatically and permanently deleted, and there is no rollback option.
Data loss when restoring files
When restoring older files from a SharePoint backup, the restore is targeted at the same URL. This means a restore overwrites whatever data currently exists in the site collection, and there is no rollback option.
Time lost in restoring files
Contacting Microsoft Support for assistance with any data loss issue can be time-consuming, and still may not result in restored files.
