Cloud Backup Case Study
ABOUT
Cheam School have made great progress in moving many systems and services to the Cloud. They wanted the reassurance that they were protected from any possible data loss, data corruption or ransomware in an online world where traditional on-premise backup systems are less relevant.
THE CHALLENGE
In recent times Cheam School have embraced ‘The Cloud’, both for administrative and for teaching and learning systems. This included moving their primary school information system fully online, plus making full use of the wide portfolio of applications provided with Office365.
With this new reliance on the online world, Cheam School understood that they still needed to ensure that school data is safe from loss or corruption. There are some recovery tools in Office365, but these do not provide the level of protection the school needed.
THE SOLUTION
inTEC EDUCATION helped the school to put in place a new advanced backup and recovery system that was itself cloud based. It was setup within an hour and provided protection for Office 365 applications plus the school’s few remaining onsite servers and files.
The new system provides comprehensive ransomware protection with the use of innovative air-gap technology. It also provides advanced emergency data access facilities that exceeded what was previously possible with an onsite backup system. Being fully cloud based, there is a management console that can be accessed from anywhere in the world.
Cheam School are now able to focus on education with the reassurance that their data is protected from accidental or malicious loss.
THE OUTCOME
“We have found it very quick and easy to recover directly back to OneDrive or SharePoint and when I communicate with governors about how we are addressing the challenges of cyber-crime, I can say that, no matter what happens, within a matter of hours we can be up and running.”
