Microsoft 365 provides service availability but does not fully protect against all data loss scenarios. Organizations need to evaluate additional backup and recovery solutions to address protection gaps beyond what Microsoft 365 natively offers. This is particularly important for sectors handling sensitive information.

Why it matters in Western Canada: Western Canadian public sector, healthcare, post-secondary, and financial organizations relying on Microsoft 365 for collaboration platforms like Teams and cloud storage must understand their own responsibility for data recovery to meet regulatory obligations such as FIPPA and institutional policies.
