Backup as a Service (BaaS)

What is BaaS?

Backup as a Service (BaaS) is a managed cloud-based service that creates and protects copies of an organization’s data so that data can be recovered even if the original data is lost, damaged, or compromised.

How does BaaS work?

Data is automatically backed up according to defined schedules and policies. It is stored in a distinct location from the original environment. If data is accidentally deleted, corrupted, lost, or affected by a cyberattack, the organization can restore it from a backup.

Why is BaaS important?

BaaS helps keep organizations from experiencing data loss because of issues from hardware failures, human error, ransomware, and other disruptions. As cyber threats continue to target business data, BaaS has become critical for protecting data and restoring operations.

Benefits and use cases
  • Offsite, immutable backups for ransomware resilience
  • Centralized policy and lifecycle management
  • Faster, reliable recovery for critical systems
  • Compliance support for data protection requirements
