Key highlights of BDR Shield

Backup from Any Location

Protect Microsoft 365 data no matter where your workforce is—headquarters, branches, or remote teams. Backups run securely over the internet without on-premise staging.

Store Backup of Your Choice

Choose the storage that fits your business: BDRCloud (secure, ready to use), your own on-prem storage, or public clouds such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud—for control over compliance, cost, and scale.

Centralized Management

Use a single web console to configure policies, monitor jobs, review reports, and perform restores—consistent visibility with less admin effort.

One Console for All Backup Types

Protect Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Files & Folders, Databases, and VM Images from one place. Note: Licensing may vary by workload.

Microsoft's Responsibility vs Customer's Responsibility

Microsoft's responsibility

  • Protect physical data center, hosts, network, and all other physical equipment
  • Provide security for Microsoft 365 cloud services
  • Provides basic data retention with limitations
  • M365 basic data retention stores data inside the Microsoft cloud
  • Meets basic compliance requirements

Customer's responsibility

  • Protect the data that resides in services on top of the physical Microsoft 365 infrastructure
  • Configure security controls, access permissions, and secure endpoints accessing M365 data
  • Protect data beyond Microsoft 365 retention periods and align with business compliance requirements
  • Ensure the 3-2-1 backup best practice is met by creating multiple copies of M365 data
  • Meet compliance and legal requirements that align with the business
