In today’s digital world, Microsoft 365 has become essential for businesses and individuals alike. Cloud-based applications like SharePoint and OneDrive make collaboration, file storage, and data sharing easier than ever. However, relying solely on these cloud services for data storage poses a major risk: what happens if there’s an outage or loss of access to your files?
At J2 Group, we recognise the importance of protecting your data. That’s why we partner with Acronis, a global leader in cloud backups, to offer comprehensive backup solutions.
The Risks of Relying Solely on Microsoft 365 for Data Storage
While Microsoft 365 provides reliable cloud-based tools, it’s not immune to technical glitches or external threats. Here are the main risks you face:
1. Downtime and Inaccessibility
Microsoft outages, though rare, can temporarily or permanently block access to your critical files. This can disrupt business operations or delay important personal tasks.
2. Accidental Deletions
Files can be mistakenly deleted or overwritten, and recovery isn’t always possible within Microsoft’s default retention policies.
3. Cyberattacks
Hackers targeting cloud accounts can lead to data breaches or permanent loss of sensitive files if backups aren’t in place.
Why Backing Up Microsoft 365 Data Is Crucial
Data loss can happen to anyone, whether you’re a large enterprise, a freelancer, or a home user. Imagine losing access to client contracts, financial documents, or cherished family photos. That’s where a reliable backup solution like Acronis comes in, ensuring your data remains secure and accessible no matter what.
