Challenge: How Can MSPs Help Customers with Ransomware Recovery? 

Ransomware attacks have grown dramatically in the past couple of years. The global attack volume has increased by 151% in 2021 and 37% of organizations have been targeted by ransomware attacks. As a trusted MSP, DMS iTech was looking for ways to help their customers recover from ransomware attacks with minimal impact to business continuity. 

Robert Vance, Solution Specialist at DMS iTech, says, “We wanted a Microsoft SharePoint data protection solution that would give our customers quick recovery from ransomware.” They needed the solution to be simple to implement and easy to manage while providing reliable and easy data recovery. 

Solution: Ransomware Recovery in Minutes (Without a Cent Paid) 

“We actually just had a customer hit by Ransomware who managed to get to recover their data with CloudAlly SharePoint Online backups. With a few clicks we were able to restore all the affected data. Big win for Cloudally!”

CloudAlly with its immutable, secure, and comprehensive Microsoft SharePoint backup facilitated fast ransomware recovery for DMS iTech’s customers. CloudAlly backs up all SharePoint online data including collections and/or sub-sites and OneDrive for Business data including metadata from day 1. All the data is stored on industry-leading Amazon AWS storage in immutable, encrypted backups. Data can be recovered from any point-in-time and level of granularity. When ransomware struck a client, they simply used the historical snapshots to restore data from a day prior to the attack. Voila! The data was recovered seamlessly without a cent of the ransom paid.
