Key Highlights:
- New self-service recovery functionality for end users is now available.
- Users can independently restore data from Mailbox, OneDrive, and OneNote without administrator assistance.
- Full backup and recovery support extended to Microsoft OneNote.
Hornetsecurity, a global leader in cybersecurity, has announced significant upgrades to its 365 Total Backup solution. The enhancements include self-service recovery capabilities for end users and comprehensive backup and recovery support for Microsoft OneNote. These new features are also integrated into 365 Total Protection Plans 3 and 4.
Empowering End Users with Self-Service Recovery
The new self-service feature allows end users to recover their own Mailbox, OneDrive, and OneNote data directly through the Hornetsecurity User Panel. This innovation eliminates the need for IT administrators to handle every restore request, saving valuable time while empowering users with greater control over their data.
With this functionality, users can locate and restore specific items or entire datasets from their Mailbox, OneDrive, and OneNote. The intuitive search and restore process ensures accessibility, even for those without technical expertise.
Daniel Hofmann, CEO of Hornetsecurity, remarked:
“So far, Microsoft 365 end-users have not been able to directly access backup data from their Mailbox, OneDrive accounts, and OneNote, making them dependent on authorized administrators whenever they needed to restore their data. We’ve therefore enhanced our backup service for Microsoft 365 by introducing self-service support for end users. As handling restore requests for end users is a time-intensive task for admins, this update frees them up for more mission-critical tasks while empowering end users.”
Introducing Backup and Recovery for Microsoft OneNote
Hornetsecurity has expanded its data protection capabilities by incorporating automatic backup and recovery for Microsoft OneNote. This new feature enables partners and customers to safeguard OneNote notebooks without relying on manual processes, ensuring the critical information stored in these notebooks is always protected and recoverable.
This addition complements the existing coverage of 365 Total Backup and 365 Total Protection, which already supports Exchange Online, OneDrive for Business, SharePoint Online, and Microsoft Teams. It provides a robust and unified solution for protecting data across essential Microsoft 365 applications.
The updates are provided as a free enhancement and follow Hornetsecurity’s recent introduction of backup and recovery for Microsoft Planner, further reinforcing its commitment to comprehensive and accessible data protection.
Daniel Hofmann further stated:
“These enhancements underscore our dedication to continually evolving our offerings to meet the needs of our partners and customers, easing the load on administrators while setting their minds at rest, and ensuring that critical data remains secure and easily recoverable.”
