Case Study: Oxford University Innovation Ltd. protects intellectual property with Keepit

Oxford University Innovation Ltd. protects IP for 33 years with Keepit

Oxford University Innovation Ltd., a subsidiary managing the technology transfer and patents for the University of Oxford, faced the challenge of protecting highly valuable intellectual property data for the legally required period of 33 years. Their existing Microsoft 365 environment lacked the necessary long-term retention and independent backup capabilities, creating significant financial and reputational risk from potential data loss. To address this, they chose Keepit's SaaS backup solution.

By implementing Keepit, Oxford University Innovation gained a vendor-independent, cloud-to-cloud backup that provided rapid data recovery and met their 33-year retention requirement. The solution was successfully used during their cloud migration and has since been critical in restoring lost data, potentially saving the university millions of pounds. Keepit continues to be a key partner, helping to onboard additional SaaS solutions for comprehensive data protection.
