Why attend

What you’ll walk away with

Why Microsoft’s native backup falls short

Understand the 1-year retention limit, lack of immutability, and shared-infrastructure risk in Microsoft 365 native backup — and what it means for ransomware recovery and compliance.

The case for vendor-independent SaaS backup

Why backups stored outside Azure, AWS, and GCP materially reduce blast radius when your tenant is compromised or suspended.

One platform, 16+ SaaS workloads

A live tour of Keepit covering Microsoft 365, Entra ID, Dynamics 365, Power Platform, Google Workspace, Salesforce, GitHub, Jira, Confluence, Zendesk, Okta, and more — with new connectors shipping every 4–6 weeks.

Compliance for PNG and Pacific organisations

How Keepit maps to Essential Eight and APRA CPS 234, with ISO 27001, ISAE 3402, GDPR, and NIS2 certifications and a Sydney data centre for regional sovereignty.

Live Q&A with regional experts

Bring your hardest SaaS protection questions — Vodafone PNG, CRS, and Keepit will answer live.
