Microsoft 365 Uses a Shared Responsibility Model

Microsoft protects the platform. You are responsible for protecting your data.

Understanding the Shared Responsibility Model

Microsoft ensures the infrastructure runs. Your organization is responsible for protecting its data.

Source: Microsoft 365

What This Means in Practice

Under the shared responsibility model, recovery depends on whether you maintain an independent backup copy of your Microsoft 365 data.

Accidental Deletion

Users permanently delete email, files, or entire mailboxes. Without backup, recovery may not be possible.

Security Events

Ransomware or malicious activity can encrypt or alter data. Recovery depends on having a separate backup copy.

Retention Gaps

Default Microsoft 365 retention policies do not guarantee long-term, independent recovery in every scenario.

VMOBACKUP creates a separate, secure backup of your Microsoft 365 data so you stay in control of recovery, retention, and compliance.
