Case Study: The Health Informatics Service achieves scalable Microsoft 365 data protection with Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup

the Health Informatics Service protects 18,000 NHS users with Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup

The Health Informatics Service (THIS), an IT services provider for the UK's National Health Service, faced a challenge protecting data for client organizations that migrated to Microsoft 365. The platform's native tools were inadequate for strict healthcare data retention and security regulations. THIS needed a robust, cloud-based backup solution to ensure compliance and simplify management.

Barracuda Networks implemented its Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup solution. This provided secure, permanent backup with role-based access, allowing routine restores to be handled by the service desk. The results included significant cost savings by eliminating 45TB of on-premises storage management, improved operational ease with a "fit-and-forget" system, and enhanced client satisfaction by enabling first-line support to perform immediate data restorations.
