What is Avast Cloud Backup?

Avast Business Cloud Backup Service is designed to keep data secure and ensures business continuity by protecting endpoint devices with an automated backup process that is easy to deploy and manage. With it, users can set up backup schedules on devices, centrally manage from one dashboard to ensure all data is backed up and available, and recover data in the case of an unexpected event.

Avast Business Cloud Backup is a great ally in data protection and backup.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We have used the Avast Cloud Backup solution on some workstations in the branch as a protection solution against cyber threats and also offer daily data backup. We have centralized software to manage all computers and create security and backup policies and then create automation routines for implementation at certain times. We've already had issues of attacks and data loss on two workstations and the issue has been worked around with the restore function which works great for unexpected events.
