Extend Microsoft 365 Backup Storage with Cohesity Cloud Services

One console to recover Exchange, SharePoint, and OneDrive with an independent, immutable copy outside Microsoft’s trust boundary. 

The rising threat to Microsoft 365 data

Microsoft 365 has become the backbone of modern business productivity, and one of the most targeted platforms in the enterprise. The stakes are real: a cyberattack on a global hotel chain disrupted its booking systems for days (Malware Bytes, 2022); a phishing attack on a major airline’s Microsoft 365 environment exposed the personal information of more than 1,700 people 
(Cybersecurity Dive, 2022, DataBreachToday, 2022); and a disgruntled IT contractor deleted more than 1,200 of a company’s 1,500 Microsoft 365 user accounts, shutting the business down for two days (Dark Reading, 2021). 

Three in four midsize organizations (75%) have experienced a material cyberattack, with 55% of those occurring in the past 12 months. Of those attacked, 82% paid a ransom, averaging $1.3M per incident. Protection is still fragmented: fewer than half use a single platform to protect their workloads and data (Cohesity Research Report, 2026). Adding more tools isn’t the answer.

Every vendor in this category calls itself resilient. Few can tell you how fast that resilience actually is. While Microsoft ensures service availability and infrastructure-level security, protecting — and recovering — your data is your responsibility.

Why fast M365 recovery matters

Microsoft 365 Backup Storage gives Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, and OneDrive for Business a secure, high-performance backup layer built within Microsoft’s own trust boundary. It can recover entire mailboxes, sites, and OneDrive accounts at rates up to 3 TB per hour 
(Microsoft Backup Overview). That’s a strong foundation, but foundational protection isn’t a full resilience strategy. Native retention windows have limits, and a real attack will find them.

Cohesity Cloud Services extends that foundation into a complete resilience strategy for Exchange, SharePoint, and OneDrive. It’s built for lean IT teams that need enterprise-grade coverage without enterprise-grade cost or headcount.



One platform, three outcomes IT leaders need

Scale

Unify coverage without adding tools or cost 

Protect and recover Exchange, SharePoint, and OneDrive from one platform, one console, and one subscription. No separate tool, no added headcount.

Speed

Recover in hours, not weeks 

At Nasdaq, an M365 mailbox restore that used to take 4 days now takes about 5 minutes. At the California Department of Finance, the team restored 2.5 TB of M365 data in 12 hours after a cyberattack, without paying a ransom.

Security

Keep a clean copy, no matter what 

Hold an independent, immutable recovery point outside Microsoft’s own trust boundary, so a clean copy of your M365 data exists even if an attacker — or a mistaken admin — gets in. 


Proof points

  • 480x faster (Signal 65 Report, 2025): independently benchmarked instant recovery vs. a leading enterprise data protection platform
  • 12,000+ customers: 200+ exabytes managed, including roughly 70% of the Fortune Global 500 
  • 4.8 / 5 rating on Gartner Peer Insights: Customers’ Choice for the 8th consecutive year in Backup and Data Protection Platforms 
    (Gartner Peer Insights, 2026)
  • ~5 minutes: Nasdaq’s M365 mailbox restore time today, down from 4 days
