WHY YOU NEED SAAS BACKUP

Organizations lose cloud data every day, even from Office 365, G Suite, and Salesforce. In fact 77% of companies that use SaaS applications suffered a data loss incident over a 12-month period.

7 WAYS ORGANIZATIONS LOSE CLOUD DATA

Google, Microsoft, and Salesforce are focused on fixing their own mistakes. But they’re not responsible when you make a mistake — or when a malicious act stops your business cold.

1. Human error

Everyday human errors account for up to 64% of data loss incidents according to research. Employees inevitably delete the wrong email, contacts, or critical configurations.

2. Illegitimate deletion requests

SaaS providers will honor your deletion request without question. They have no way of knowing if it’s a hasty (or malicious) request and they are not responsible for any unexpected results.

3. Programatic errors

Otherwise known as sync errors, those powerful tools designed to streamline business processes can ruin critical data in a flash — with no undo.

4. Hackers

Whether through technical means or social engineering, aggressive individuals and organizations are constantly inventing new tactics for getting to your data.

5. Malicious insiders

Employee action is involved in up to 23% of all electronic crime events.

6. Malware and viruses

Rogue software can spread mayhem with programatic efficiency without an active attack from a hacker. Many malware programs and viruses emerge from existing code after hibernation, making them especially hard to defend against.

7. Ransomware

Beyond a typical cyberattack, these forms of industrial-scale extortion are becoming increasingly aggressive and expensive. Learn more.
