M365 environment protection

“Not only did Cohesity enable us to safeguard our Exchange environment and move data management to the cloud, but we also easily meet the requirements for cybersecurity insurance. We are now able to protect and recover our entire M365 environment, reduce our reliance on costly storage, and enhance our cyber resiliency.”

Richard Humphreys, IT Manager, The Southport School

At a Glance

TSS decided to use Cohesity DataProtect delivered as a service to back up its M365 mailboxes, creating a cloud-to-cloud isolated copy of data. By moving its backups to the Cohesity Cloud Services, hosted in AWS, TSS reduced its reliance on expensive on-prem storage for its M365 backups, while gaining assurance that the school’s valuable data was even more secure.

Challenge

TSS backed up data using Veeam on-prem. The legacy solution worked adequately and was easy to use, but the on-prem environment required a significant investment in data center storage, was time-consuming to manage, and offered only a basic level of security functionality for the school’s critical data.

Solution

After evaluating several data protection solutions, TSS chose Cohesity DataProtect delivered as a service to protect the school’s M365 data. Cohesity enables TSS to simplify management of all backups and to easily scale the environment to meet demands.

Result

Recovering data is much faster on Cohesity since TSS is essentially running a live copy of our data, and can now retrieve mailboxes or files in minutes instead of days. The Cohesity solution also enabled TSS to more easily qualify for cybersecurity insurance.
