Asigra SaaSBACKUP, through API connectivity, can support SaaS applications with enterprise-class data protection to ensure business continuity.
With the increase in SaaS application adoption, there is an urgency to protect mission-critical data in these applications. However, many businesses and IT users need to realize most of these applications offer basic or weak data protection capabilities or guarantees for data recovery. In some cases, data recovery is placed squarely on the shoulders of IT, putting the burden on the user organization to deploy a backup solution capable of providing the appropriate level of protection.
Asigra SaaSBACKUP was developed to protect a wide range of SaaS applications that include apps for Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Content Management System (CMS), Project Management, sales, marketing, eCommerce solutions, and more.
The new SaaSBACKUP platform provides the following advanced features:
- MultiSaaS Support: Designed to protect data across many SaaS environments, ensuring 24x7x365 protection of business data.
- Fast, Simple Deployment: Provides mass deployment across hundreds or thousands of SaaS application users simultaneously for immediate and consistent protection.
- Bring your Storage: Store data in your storage repository, own the data, and if you don’t have one, leverage Asigra’s relationship with select partners.
- Simple Pay Per Use Model: Pay per use. Per user, per app, per month.
- Unique Multiperson Approvals: Configure the software to require multiple people to approve potentially destructive actions, protecting against credential theft, user error, or insider threat. They are designed to require multiple people to approve within a set period for key functions such as deleting a data set.
- SaaSBACKUP Marketplace: A future addition to the platform will be a marketplace enabling a simple revenue share opportunity for partners who build connectors to new SaaS applications.
SaaSBACKUP is a turnkey True Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) that requires no infrastructure installation, and maintenance is updated by Asigra and managed in the cloud. Secure by design, the platform is built from the ground up with integrated security, including MFA (multi-factor authentication) and MPA (Multi-person Approval), to prevent unauthorized acts due to credential theft, user error, or insider thread. The SaaSBACKUP platform features military-grade encryption with FIPS 140-2 certification to protect data at the highest security and compliance levels.
Developed for Managed Service Providers (MSPs), Asigra partners will soon have access to a software development kit (SDK). The SDK will give partners rapid SaaS application connector growth allowing them to add new SaaS app connectors when needed continually. MSPs will select their storage environment as a backup repository. The repository includes AWS or any other S3-compatible cloud storage platform. The platform complements traditional on-premise backup solutions, with no need to rip and replace existing software as the solution is additive.
Availability
Asigra SaaSBACKUP will be available in North America in Q3–2023 and Europe/UK in Q4–2023. Managed service providers may register to receive updates or to become a Launch Partner.
