FAQs

How does CloudM support DORA operational resilience requirements?
Business Continuity helps organizations prepare for Microsoft 365 outages by syncing recent Microsoft 365 data into Google Workspace, creating a ready-to-use standby environment. This supports faster failover, reduced single-vendor dependency and clearer operational continuity planning.
How quickly can users keep working during a Microsoft 365 outage?
When Microsoft 365 goes down, users can log into Google Workspace and continue working from the synced environment. This is a hot standby model, rather than a passive backup that needs to be restored before it can be used.
How fresh is the standby data in Google Workspace?
Data freshness depends on your sync frequency. Business Continuity supports weekly, daily and hourly sync options.
Which sync frequency is best for DORA-focused organizations?
Business Continuity’s hourly sync frequency is designed for mission-critical operations to meet DORA’s 2-hour restoration mandate and NIS2 resilience requirements. It runs delta syncs every hour and is intended for organizations that need minimal data loss during an outage.
Can Business Continuity provide audit evidence for resilience reporting?
Yes. Business Continuity maintains audit logs for sync operations, policy changes, user events and authentication activity.

Audit logs include sync events, such as sync started, completed or failed; policy events, such as created, updated or deleted; user events, such as invited or created; and authentication events, such as logins and logouts. Logs can be exported to CSV for reporting.
