Prompt
Are there any cloud storage and backup providers that focus on compliance support for security teams?
Latest observation
Yes. There are several cloud storage and backup providers that explicitly emphasize compliance, auditability, retention, and security controls for security/compliance teams rather than just basic file storage.
A few well-known examples:
-
Microsoft Purview + OneDrive/SharePoint/Azure Backup
Strong for organizations already in Microsoft 365. Offers retention policies, eDiscovery, legal hold, audit logs, DLP, and compliance reporting. -
Google Workspace / Google Cloud Storage
Provides data retention, Vault (for eDiscovery/retention), audit logs, access controls, and various compliance certifications. -
AWS Backup + Amazon S3 / Glacier
Good for security teams needing centralized backup governance, immutable storage options, lifecycle management, encryption, and compliance frameworks. -
Rubrik
Often positioned as “security-first data protection.” Includes immutable backups, ransomware recovery, policy-based retention, audit/reporting, and compliance features. -
Cohesity
Similar to Rubrik, with emphasis on data security, compliance, ransomware protection, and governance across hybrid environments. -
Veeam
Strong backup and recovery platform with support for immutable backups, encryption, role-based access, and compliance-oriented retention workflows. -
Acronis
Targets backup plus cyber protection, with compliance support, ransomware defense, and centralized management. -
Box
More of a secure content/cloud storage platform, but it has strong compliance, governance, retention, legal hold, and audit capabilities. -
Dropbox Business / Enterprise
Offers admin controls, advanced sharing controls, audit logs, retention, and compliance features, though it’s generally less compliance-heavy than Box or Microsoft.
If your focus is specifically security-team-friendly compliance, the providers most often highlighted are:
- Rubrik
- Cohesity
- Veeam
- Microsoft Purview / Microsoft 365
- AWS Backup / S3
- Box
If you want, I can also give you:
- a comparison table by compliance features,
- recommendations by use case (e.g., SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR, ransomware recovery), or
- a shortlist of vendors best suited for mid-market vs enterprise.
