Microsoft 365 Backup: Ransomware-Proof, Instantly Recoverable

Six backup types covering files, disk images, entire machines, system state, applications, and cloud storage, plus unlimited email backup. All immutable. All restorable in minutes.

Microsoft provides availability, not backup. We provide both.

Microsoft does not back up your data

Microsoft 365 is designed for availability (keeping the service online). Microsoft's own User Agreement explicitly states it is not responsible for your data. Accidental deletion, ransomware encryption, and malicious insiders can all result in permanent data loss with no Microsoft safety net. 93% of organizations that lose data for 10+ days following a disaster file for bankruptcy within a year.

Six Backup Types: Complete Coverage

ShieldForce doesn't just back up emails. Every layer of your M365 environment (from individual files to full machine images) is protected.

File Backup

Individual files and folders backed up continuously. Restore any version of any file in seconds.

Image Backup

Full disk images of every device, allowing full system restores without reinstalling the OS or applications.

Entire Machine Backup

Complete machine backups that let you restore an entire device to a previous state, including OS, settings, and all installed software.

System State Backup

Backs up Windows system state components (registry, Active Directory, boot files), critical for domain controller recovery.

Applications Backup

Application-consistent backup for databases and business applications so you restore data, not just files.

Backup to Cloud Storage

All backup data stored in secure, immutable cloud storage, protected from ransomware, hardware failure, and physical disasters.

HIPAA Retention Policies
Configurable retention periods aligned with HIPAA, FINRA, SOX, and other regulatory requirements.
Audit Logs
Every backup, restore, and access event is logged with timestamp, user, and IP for compliance documentation.
Ransomware Recovery
If ransomware encrypts files on your devices or M365, restore clean versions from the last clean backup with a few clicks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Microsoft 365 include backup?

No. Microsoft provides high availability (keeping their service online), but does not back up your data against accidental deletion, ransomware, or user error. Microsoft's own Service Agreement states they are not responsible for data loss.

What does ShieldForce back up in M365?

Exchange Online (unlimited email backup), SharePoint, OneDrive, and Teams, plus device-level file, image, machine, system state, and application backups for all devices in your environment.

How quickly can I restore data?

Individual emails and files restore in minutes. Full machine restores depend on machine size and network, typically within hours using our cloud-hosted recovery environment.

Is this HIPAA-compliant?

Yes. Immutable storage, policy-driven retention, and full audit logs for all access and restore events satisfy HIPAA Security Rule backup and data integrity requirements.

What happens if ransomware hits my M365 environment?

Files encrypted by ransomware can be restored to the last clean backup state with a few clicks. Immutable storage ensures the backup copies cannot have been encrypted alongside your live data.
