Workflow to protect data using Cohesity Alta SaaS Protection
Cohesity Alta SaaS Protection enables the backup and restore of data from various SaaS applications, including Microsoft 365, Box, Salesforce, and Azure AD (Microsoft Entra ID). To protect your SaaS applications included in your subscription, follow these steps:
Ensure that you understand the details of your Cohesity Alta SaaS Protection subscription.
Before configuring backups, ensure that all necessary prerequisites are met for each application.
Set up Cohesity Alta SaaS Protection connectors for each SaaS application that requires protection.
