Data Protection
Robust protection for your business-critical data across cloud, endpoints, and collaboration platforms.
Designed to safeguard information integrity, ensure recoverability, and maintain compliance with regulatory and operational requirements.
A Structured Framework for Protecting and Recovering Critical Data
Modern organisations generate and store more data than ever — across email, SharePoint, Teams, OneDrive, endpoints, and line-of-business applications. When that data is lost, corrupted, deleted, or exposed, the operational and compliance impact is immediate.
Commstec delivers a structured, security-aligned data protection model designed to ensure your information remains recoverable, auditable, and aligned with regulatory expectations such as Cyber Essentials Plus, DSPT, and ISO 27001.
By combining regular reliable backups, retention governance, evidence-ready reporting, and clear restoration workflows, we give you confidence that your organisation’s data is protected — and not just assumed to be safe.

Why It Matters
Most businesses assume Microsoft 365 automatically protects their data. It doesn’t. Microsoft’s responsibility ends at platform availability — your data is your problem.
Without proper backup and retention governance, organisations face:
- Permanent data loss
- Failed ISO or DSPT audits
- Inability to meet legal or evidential requirements
- Costly downtime when files or emails disappear
- No defence against ransomware encryption
Commstec removes this risk with a fully managed, monitored, and evidence-ready backup service.
We support Sheffield and South Yorkshire organisations that cannot afford ambiguity when it comes to data integrity, compliance, or recovery.
