Why back up Entra ID?

Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory) is the identity and access management service behind Microsoft 365 and Azure. It controls who can sign in, what they can access and from which devices. If identities, groups or policies are deleted, misconfigured or tampered with, the whole organisation can be locked out, or left wide open.

Microsoft offers some recovery options, such as the recycle bin for deleted users and groups, but they are limited in scope and time. Many objects and settings, including conditional access policies, are not covered at all. And the recycle bin was never designed as an enterprise recovery tool.

What Keepit backs up

  • Users and their attributes
  • Groups and memberships
  • Roles and role assignments
  • Administrative units
  • Conditional access policies
  • Intune configuration
  • Enterprise applications
  • App registrations
  • BitLocker recovery keys
  • Audit and sign-in logs
