Dropsuite, a cloud data protection provider, announced a series of product updates designed to close critical security gaps. These updates – which expand on Dropsuite’s Microsoft 365 backup coverage while enhancing protection for Microsoft Entra identity systems and access policies – come in response to the increasing sophistication of cyber-threats threatening MSPs.
The refresh should allow MSPs to deliver broader, deeper protection for faster recovery from incidents, in addition to boosting customer value.
“We’re increasing MSP awareness of new cyberattack surfaces, and adding value for their end users with deeper layers of protection against both the latest threats and human error,” said Mark Kirstein, Dropsuite’s CPO. “Whether it’s a new entry point for ransomware or an accidental policy misconfiguration, Dropsuite has our partners covered.”
The enhancements are expected to transform M365 backup into a core security layer for MSPs. This includes:
- Increased automated OneDrive backups.
- Improved permission backup and restoration.
- Contact history tracking.
- Sub-calendar support.
- Faster SharePoint download speeds.
As cyberattacks increasingly target Microsoft Entra ID, Dropsuite’s Entra Backup also adds identity protection to help MSPs limit downtime from misconfigurations or deletions, with expanded coverage for enterprise applications, service principals, conditional access policies, device management policies, Microsoft intune policies and BitLocker recovery keys.
Dropsuite’s unified platform provides visibility across content and identity, empowering MSPs to act as trusted security advisors for their clients. MSPs can now protect identity access rules and security policies to limit extended downtime by quickly rolling back to previous versions. They gain cybersecurity forensic capabilities to use in post-incident investigation by tracing changes in rules, policies and identities — allowing them to identify what was accessed, lost or encrypted.
