Case Study: Electricity of Kanton Zurich achieves secure Microsoft 365 backup with Commvault and SoftwareOne

Electricity of Kanton Zurich secures 24/7 backup with Commvault

ekz, one of Switzerland's largest energy suppliers, faced the challenge of protecting its critical Microsoft 365, Entra ID, and Salesforce data from cyberattacks and ensuring operational continuity. Relying solely on Microsoft's native tools was insufficient for their high-security and compliance requirements. They needed a robust, easy-to-use backup solution to mitigate the serious risks associated with a potential data loss or outage.

The solution implemented was Backup Essentials powered by Commvault Cloud, a managed service from SoftwareOne that leverages Commvault's technology. This provided ekz with 24/7 monitoring, air-gapped isolated data copies, and a single console for a complete overview. The results included improved security and compliance, reduced IT overhead and operational costs, and higher backup performance. Commvault's comprehensive solution ensured reliable data protection and quick recovery capabilities for the critical infrastructure provider.
