Welcome to the Keepit BrightTALK channel, your go-to destination for essential insights on safeguarding your cloud data. As a leading cloud backup and recovery provider, Keepit understands the critical importance of protecting your digital assets in today's rapidly evolving cyber landscape. Our channel is dedicated to empowering businesses and individuals with expert knowledge and best practices to ensure the security, integrity, and compliance of their valuable data.

How confident are you that your critical SaaS applications data is protected? 

If you’re not entirely confident, you’re not alone. A recent survey into the current state of SaaS data protection in the market showed that only 28% of IT and security executives surveyed expressed complete confidence in their current protection measures and resilience. 

As SaaS applications, such as Microsoft 365 and Salesforce, become integral across various industries, the rapid growth in SaaS usage and data volume presents scalability challenges for organizations — and safeguarding this data becomes crucial for corporate security, resulting in increasingly complex global compliance regulations.  

In this session, Paul Robichaux, Microsoft MVP and Sr. Director of Product Management at Keepit and Dough Barth, CEO of Gatepoint Research will walk you through the results of our SaaS data protection confidence survey which asked executives and directors to rate their current SaaS data protection measures and share their main challenges when it comes to securing SaaS applications. 

Among others, the following topics will be discussed: 

Which critical SaaS applications are organizations protecting today and how are they backing up data in these environments? 

What are organizations greatest concerns and challenges when it comes to protecting their SaaS data? 

What do organizations need from a SaaS data protection vendor to increase their cyber resilience? 

Join us for exclusive market insights and practical strategies for ensuring robust SaaS data protection and increasing cyber resilience. Reserve your spot now and engage in a live Q&A, where you can ask our experts anything.

4 Steps to Protect Microsoft 365 from Ransomware

What’s the business risk of not backing up Entra ID (formerly Azure AD)?

Keepit’s Paul Robichaux, Microsoft MVP and Keepit Sr Director of Product, explains the math of not protecting Entra ID.

It’s all about “probability x expected damage”:
The probability: 2/3 of Entra ID admins don’t use MFA. With 50 million password attacks daily targeting Entra ID, you can be pretty sure you’ll be on the receiving end of a successful attack one day. Or a system outage. Or human error.

The damage: Protecting your identities and policies and is critical to keeping your business up and running. Losing access to Entra ID means your business is dead in the water.

The solution: Back up Entra ID in a completely separate infrastructure.

What’s the business risk of not backing up Entra ID?

Why do I need Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) backup? Isn’t Microsoft 365 backup enough?

Simply put, Entra ID is the brain to the Microsoft 365 body:

All authority and information about Microsoft 365 users, applications, and entities – access rights, permissions, roles, policies – comes from Entra ID. Without it, Microsoft 365 stops working.

Keepit’s Paul Robichaux, Microsoft MVP and Keepit Sr Director of Product, explains the relationship between Microsoft 365 and Entra ID – and why it’s crucial to protect Entra ID, if you want your users to be able to do their work.

The solution: Back up Entra ID to always have access to your brain.

Why do I need Entra ID backup? Isn’t Microsoft 365 backup enough?

Will the recycle bin protect my Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) data?

No, is the answer. Because a) not all objects have a recycle bin. That goes for e.g. Conditional Access and Intune policies. And b): Because what is covered by a recycle bin, all have different time limits and expirations dates. 14 days, 2 months. And at some point, you can no longer recover those items.

Keepit’s Paul Robichaux, Microsoft MVP and Keepit Sr Director of Product, explains why the recycle bin is nowhere near a strategy.
The solution: Back up Entra ID for unlimited and indefinite storage.

While ransomware prevention is always the goal, what happens when, inevitably, an attack occurs anyway? You might already have a backup and disaster recovery solution in place, but often, that is not enough if you don’t have a solid, and thoroughly tested, ransomware recovery process. Join us for an insightful webinar with Brent Ellis, Forrester Senior Analyst, Elia Gollini, Forrester Associate Consultant, and Paul Robichaux, Microsoft MVP and Senior Director of Product at Keepit, as they dive into the current state of ransomware recovery processes in the market while highlighting often-missed gaps in disaster recovery planning. The landscape of disaster recovery is undergoing a significant transformation as organizations continue to rely more heavily on SaaS applications, and in this context, disaster recovery strategies are transitioning as well.

Learn what companies can do now to improve their disaster recovery plans, as well as practical strategies to enhance your business continuity – and significantly reduce downtime during a ransomware attack while maximizing ROI. Because it’s not a question of if it will happen, the question is how to bounce back when it does.

You will also hear how organizations have orchestrated effective ransomware recovery processes with Keepit and what return on investment they have realized for their company by employing Keepit as their data protection vendor – based on the commissioned Total Economic Impact™ study conducted by Forrester Consulting.

Backup management og disaster recovey tiltag er et væsentligt krav når samfundskritiske organisationer skal efterleve NIS2.

For hele formålet med NIS2 er at sikre, at samfund ikke går i stå, selvom vigtige funktioner svækkes eller tages ud af drift. Og den vigtigste forudsætning for, at din organisation kan fortsætte er, at I har adgang til jeres data – brugerdata, research, økonomi, logistik, og meget andet.
