[Read more about Your path to Microsoft 365 ransomware protection](https://www.commvault.com/resources/ebook/your-path-to-microsoft-365-ransomware-protection) --- ## Frequently Asked Questions Why do I need dedicated Microsoft 365 Backup? Protecting your Microsoft 365 data is your responsibility. While Microsoft provides native tools for short- term data replication (such as recycling bins), they recommend using a third-party solution. With dedicated protection businesses get purpose-built tools for extended retention, data isolation outside production environments, SLA compliance, and rapid, granular recoverability. How long should a company retain emails? Retention policies can vary across companies and industries. For example, HIPAA regulations mandate that healthcare companies keep records for at least six years. With Commvault Cloud, you can select a pre-configured retention plan or customize your own based on your corporate compliance retention policies. Can I have multiple Microsoft 365 retention policies? Yes, Commvault Cloud Backup for Microsoft 365, you can have multiple retention policies and set them at the mailbox level. For example, assign longer retention policy for company executives. How can I protect my Microsoft 365 data from ransomware, corruption, or accidental deletion? Commvault Cloud is built upon a zero-trust framework, where all data is air-gapped and isolated from source environments. In other words, Commvault Cloud stores backup copies outside the Microsoft 365 environment, in a separate security domain. That means data loss events that impact production data (such as user error or an internal attack), cannot also impact backup copies. With rapid and flexible restore options, users can easily and quickly restore lost or compromised data. How does eDiscovery work for Microsoft 365? eDiscovery for Commvault Cloud Backup for Microsoft 365 provides a single experience to preserve data for regulatory compliance. Using simple keyword queries, users can uncover data buried deep within their Microsoft 365 environment and export it for preservation. Paired with eDiscovery for Endpoint Backup, Commvault Cloud users get a fast, effective eDiscovery solution that spans across workloads in unison. --- Start a Trial ## Ready to get started?
