Phishing and account takeover still get through — even with native protections. At DCP Datacentreplus we pair Acronis-powered email security with reliable backups so you get both prevention and recovery. Why this matters: >> Blocking threats reduces exposure to credential compromise. >> Backups ensure email data can be restored if an incident occurs. Combined approach = greater resilience for your Microsoft 365 estate.

Many organisations assume Microsoft 365 retention = backup. It doesn’t. Retention controls how long data exists. It doesn’t guarantee recoverability after accidental deletion, corruption or ransomware. Combine AI-powered protection with an independent backup to ensure email, files and Teams data can be restored when needed. 👇 See recovery in practice: https://lnkd.in/eUR6xnCw #DataProtection #Microsoft365 #Backup #CyberSecurity #DCP #BusinessContinuity

Microsoft 365 is built for availability — not for full data recovery. That means responsibility for protecting email, files and collaboration data sits with your business. Acronis Protected 365 provides AI-powered protection and security so recovery is possible when data is deleted, compromised or encrypted. 👇 Learn how DatacentrePlus can help: https://lnkd.in/eCXPxwam #DCP #DatacentrePlus #Microsoft365 #Backup #BusinessContinuity #CyberSecurity

𝐀 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐑𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐔𝐊 𝐢𝐧 2025 The Sophos State of Ransomware 2025 report has just been released, and the findings for UK infrastructure are a stark wake-up call. At DCP, we’re seeing these trends firsthand: ransomware is becoming more aggressive, more expensive, and harder to ignore. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐔𝐊 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬: >>70% of UK attacks resulted in data encryption - well above the 50% global average. >>$5.37M is the new median ransom demand, more than double last year’s figure. >>103% of the demand is what UK firms are typically paying to get their data back. >>$2.58M is the average cost of recovery excluding the ransom payment. The real root cause: It isn't just a technical battle. >>42% of UK organisations cited a lack of cyber security expertise as a primary reason for falling victim. This expertise gap is putting unsustainable pressure on IT teams, leading to increased workloads and mental health stress. The bottom line: "Hoping for the best" is no longer a strategy. Resilience requires proactive prevention, 24/7 detection, and a hardened infrastructure. 👇 Read our latest summary and discover the 4 pillars of defence here https://lnkd.in/e-iwyGbi #CyberSecurity #Ransomware #UKBusiness #DataCentre #Sophos #BusinessContinuity
