Backup for Entra ID

Entra ID controls access to your Microsoft 365 environment - and if it’s compromised, your entire operation is at risk. Our backup solution keeps your identity configuration secure, monitored, and fully restorable, so you can recover fast and stay in control.

Overview

Active Directory and Microsoft Entra ID manage identity and access for all your systems, ensuring the right people have the right permissions.

They’re the backbone of your security through single sign-on (SSO) and access control – and for hybrid environments, syncing between on-prem and cloud directories adds even more complexity and risk. But many organisations don’t have full protection for these critical systems. When things go wrong, recovery can be complex, slow, and incomplete without the right tools.

Recover quickly when every second counts.

The risk is real - and growing.

Identity systems are a prime target for attacks and ransomware. Most organisations lack reliable recovery options, as Microsoft doesn’t restore these services for you. Recovery must be part of your business continuity strategy.

Why it matters:

Identity is a key entry point for modern attacks
Ransomware often disables directory services

Microsoft leaves recovery up to you
Manual fixes are slow and unreliable

The risks of going unprotected

Without dedicated backup for Active Directory and Entra ID, you risk:

Cascading disruption across your business when staff can’t log in, apps fail to authenticate, & access is lost across Microsoft 365 & connected systems

Loss of access if user accounts or policies are deleted or altered.
Lengthy downtime during manual recovery
Hidden malicious changes like unauthorised group membership or app permissions
Compliance issues from prolonged outages or incorrect access control
Changes in on-prem Active Directory can sync and overwrite secure Entra ID configurations – unless backups are in place
