Why Identity Resilience?

Microsoft Entra ID is the foundation of modern identity and access management, controlling access to users, devices, applications and business-critical data across the organisation. As cyber threats continue to target identity systems, compromised privileged accounts, malicious configuration changes and accidental deletion of critical identity objects can quickly lead to operational disruption, security breaches and loss of access to essential services.

Autodata helps organisations protect, monitor, back up and recover Microsoft Entra ID, strengthening cyber resilience and reducing the risk of identity-related incidents. Our solutions provide greater visibility into identity changes, support compliance requirements, and enable rapid recovery of users, groups, roles and configurations when security incidents, ransomware attacks or administrative errors occur.

Recover critical identity data with confidence.

Autodata ensures your Entra ID tenant is fully resilient to meet your recovery objectives and compliance goals with our managed Entra ID backup and restoration for users, groups, application registers, and other objects:

  • Identify directory changes when restoring data
  • Reduce risk through automated backup processes
  • Pinpoint broken or missing application registrations
  • Successfully restore objects without Recycle Bins or beyond 30-day retention

Why Autodata Entra ID Backup?

As identity becomes the gateway to business operations, resilience depends on the ability to recover quickly when access, policies or configurations are compromised.

  • All metadata including users and groups
  • Group memberships and ownerships
  • Entra ID Role assignments
  • Default and created roles
  • Assigned licences
  • Applications ownerships
  • Contacts
  • Conditional Access Policies
  • Intune Device Configurations

Frequently asked questions

Why is identity recovery important?

Attackers increasingly target identities, privileged accounts and authentication services. The ability to recover quickly from compromise or misconfiguration can significantly reduce downtime, operational impact and business risk.

How is identity resilience different from standard identity and access management?

Identity and access management focuses on controlling and securing access to systems and data. Identity resilience extends this by ensuring identities, permissions and security controls can be recovered quickly following cyber attack, malicious change or administrative error.

Is Microsoft accountable from protecting Entra ID?

Microsoft secures the platform infrastructure, but organisations remain responsible for protecting and recovering their own identities, configurations, permissions and security policies.

Managed Service

"We needed a reliable cloud backup and storage service that didn’t take too much time to manage. Autodata's Managed Service solution is straightforward, secure, and sensibly priced. It’s helped us get on top of our data protection goals and tick off a few compliance boxes too. It’s also been easier to work with Autodata than some of the bigger names."

Gavin Bidgood Infrastructure and Security Manager, Hotel Chocolat

Cyber Security Maturity Assessment

"We were able to make our perimeter even more secure by addressing the areas of weakness exposed by Autodata. A previous assessment performed two months earlier by another supplier for our CE+ renewal had failed to highlight all the critical and high risks. I was also impressed that Autodata's report arrived swiftly seeing as I'd waited over two weeks for anything from the other supplier."

Simon Parsons Director of IT, CitySprint

Microsoft 365 Backup

"We needed S3 object storage offsite to bolster our backup environment, initially for M365 then for our server infrastructure as well. Autodata’s M365 Backup solution has allowed us to leverage immutable cloud repositories giving us reassurance that our data will be safe. It’s easy to setup, easy to manage, and backs up with no problems whatsoever."

Neil Fleetwood IT Helpdesk Support Manager, Kimal

Penetration Testing

"We engaged Autodata for our penetration testing based on their credentials and overall approach. The whole process was very smooth and I felt fully engaged throughout. Their project team was impressively self-sufficient, providing us with daily progress updates and issuing the final report within a matter of days. I was very satisfied with the service and would definitely recommend them."

Dan Young IT Service & Support Director, Killik & Co

Managed Service

"We were already an existing Veeam user, however we were overprovisioned and looking to increase our protection against ransomware by introducing immutability. Autodata took our requirements and provided an easier to manage, more affordable service backed by prompt support. The service has improved our level of confidence in our backups whilst reducing costs."

Luke Cox IT Support Engineer, HQW Aerospace

Cyber Essentials Plus

"We engaged Autodata to support the renewal of our CE+ certification. They were able to kick-off the project at short notice and scheduled penetration testing in alignment with our internal IT resource availability. Their team are professional, knowledgeable, and supportive. I would not hesitate in recommending them to any organisation looking to overcome its cyber security challenges."

Sean Forrest IT Manager EMEA, Tetra Tech

Managed Service

"Autodata's Managed Service solution is really easy to use and is cost effective against other types of backup and cloud storage available yet offers advanced functionality. It has given us extra layers of security and helps us to assure stakeholders that we have the right technology in place for data protection and restoration. The solution just works!"

Ian Robertson Director of ICT, The Regenda Group

Microsoft 365 Backup

"When it came to implementing an offsite immutable storage repository to protect our entire M365 environment and provide ransomware protection, Autodata's unique offering represented a significant cost saving. They were able to offer us a fully managed Veeam M365 Backup solution with immutable storage for only a marginal increase in what we had been paying for Veeam licences alone."

Stephen Clark Solutions Architect, Greencore

Cyber Awareness as a Service

"Autodata offers an effective managed cyber awareness testing and training programme. I was very pleased with how straightforward it was to set up and that everything runs on my behalf with minimal interaction. We continue to benefit from such a well thought-out programme, helping to keep cyber security at the forefront of our employee’s minds all year round."

Chris Russell CTO, Abacus Financial Services

Immutable Cloud Storage

"We wanted a cloud storage service that worked well with Veeam and provided immutability to enable us to lockdown our data and recover backups in the event of a ransomware attack. Autodata's Immutable Cloud Storage solution powered by Wasabi provides cloud storage at an affordable price with added cyber security protection - which is precisely what we were looking for."
