@kevinnejad Solid advice. Next step: make sure your mail and files are also safe outside Microsoft 365. A separate backup makes you less dependent on one provider. That's what we do at Mindtime Data Security.
@gmanews Good to hear it wasn't an attack. Still worth asking: is your Microsoft 365 data also stored somewhere else? At Mindtime Data Security we back it up separately from Microsoft.
@DaneBuilds Everything in one place is also one point of failure. A separate backup of your mail, OneDrive and SharePoint gives you peace of mind when it goes wrong again. Mindtime Data Security can help, hosted in the EU.
@Troylit_1 Good recap. An outage like this shows how much rides on one platform. A backup of your Microsoft 365 data outside Microsoft isn't a luxury. That's what we do at Mindtime Data Security: https://t.co/0zyJfxPA4P
We're an independent, privately owned European company. Not a big tech platform.
For MSPs that means one partner for both sides. An EDR console to spot threats across every client. Immutable backup, hosted in the EU, to bring the data back.

Attackers are handing more of the work to AI agents. Microsoft recently described attacks that went from first target to privileged cloud access in under three hours.
That leaves less time to react. So spot it early, and keep a clean copy to come back to.

Recover. EDR doesn't roll back encrypted files. An immutable backup gives every client a clean copy to return to.

Investigate and respond. Your analysts hunt across endpoint activity, filter by client and act.
Response rules you configure can run actions automatically. Every action is logged.
Start of the day. 40 clients, a long list of alerts. Where do you begin?
In the Mindtime Security console every finding is scored Critical to Low and mapped to MITRE ATT&CK. The clients that need attention rise to the top.
Your analysts start there. #MSP
Two recent incidents close to home: Albert Heijn's parent company and FOD FinanciΓ«n. In both, suspicious activity was noticed early and systems were taken offline to contain it.
EDR helps your team spot it early. A tested restore gets you back. Is yours tested?
Does EDR replace backup? No.
EDR helps your team spot what's going on. It doesn't bring encrypted files back. For that you need a clean copy.
Our backups are immutable. Nobody can change or delete them, not even ransomware.
A question we get from MSPs: is Mindtime Security a managed SOC?
No. It's a platform. Your team watches the alerts, investigates and decides what to do. We build and update the console and the agents.
Your clients stay your clients.
Ransomware crews now switch off EDR before they encrypt. ESET researchers describe a gang that hands its affiliates a whole kit of EDR killers.
Then they go for the backups.
Detection matters. So does a copy nobody can change. #ransomware
EDR spots it. Backup brings it back.
That's the idea behind Mindtime Security, our EDR platform for MSPs. One multi-tenant console for your clients' Windows and Linux endpoints. You run the service. We build the tools.

Looking for a Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace backup that stays in the EU?
We store data only in Tier III datacentres in the EU, under EU law. ISO 27001 certified.
Support in Dutch, German and English.

Ook MSP's en ICT-beheerdiensten kunnen onder de Cbw vallen, afhankelijk van hun omvang. Het toezicht ligt dan bij de RDI.

Sinds 15 augustus geldt de Cyberbeveiligingswet (Cbw). Dat is de Nederlandse invulling van NIS2. De Cbw vervangt de Wbni.
Wat betekent dat in de praktijk? Een kort draadje. #Cbw

Meldplicht: bij een significant incident stuur je binnen 24 uur een eerste waarschuwing.
En het bestuur is verantwoordelijk. Dit is dus niet alleen een IT-onderwerp.
