Help - Office 365 Backup Policy
Can someone please point me to the official O365 backup policy(link/document). I'm interested to know the backup policy for SharePoint sites and OneDrive on Office 365.
Yeah! You have to put things into perspective and think about it really! In some situations I guess that’s a good option doing a cloud to cloud backup! But most scenarios I don’t really think so! You have the 2 step recycle bin for for files, versioning for content within files and restore for the library in case of disaster or a night out coming home and doing some work! Last resort the MS backup!
Very important document could be set on hold Or set as record
Together with good security measures this will do well enough for most people

"for most people" is the key phrase there. Most people don't get ransomware. (But it happens every day.) Most people don't have a hacker gain access to a privileged account. (But it happens every day.) So most people won't end up really needing something outside what MS give them.
BUT if your company DOES have one of these things happen to them, you're out of luck if you don't have a third-party backup of your O365 data.
That's why I think it's irresponsible to say that you don't third party backup of any computing service.
