Back Up Active Directory
with the NAKIVO Solution

Perform Fast Active Directory Backups

Increase backup speed with incremental AD backups that copy only the changed data blocks using proprietary change tracking technologies. The application-aware mode in the NAKIVO solution ensures that the protected Active Directory objects are transactionally consistent during the backup process. With the flexible retention policy, you can store up to 4,000 recovery points on backup and freely rotate them on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.

Send AD Backups Offsite or to the Cloud

Store Active Directory data on multiple platforms to eliminate a single point of failure and ensure data availability in case of a disaster or disruption. The Backup Copy feature streamlines storage tiering by allowing you to send data to local repositories, offsite or to the cloud.

Improve Ransomware Resilience

Apply AES 256 encryption and role-based access control to protect AD data from unauthorized third-party access. You can also enable immutability on backups containing AD data to prevent modification or deletion by ransomware.

back_up_active_directory_asset_3

Run Data Protection Tasks Automatically

Automate data protection workflows by scheduling AD backups and recoveries using the Calendar dashboard. You can also run backup jobs automatically using the job chaining feature and back up data based on specific criteria with Policy-Based Data Protection.

Recover AD Objects Instantly

You can instantly restore your entire AD or individual objects directly from compressed and deduplicated backups using the granular recovery capability. This allows you to quickly roll back to any previous state and undo unwanted changes.

back_up_active_directory_asset_2

Improve AD Backup Performance

Increase data transfer rates and achieve shorter backup windows during Active Directory backup with the Network Acceleration feature. You can also use the built-in Advanced Bandwidth Throttling capability to limit bandwidth consumption for backup jobs and offload your production network.

Save Storage Space and Costs

Store only unique data in the backup repository when regularly backing up Active Directory data using the global data deduplication feature. You can further reduce storage consumption with the adjustable compression functionality in NAKIVO Backup & Replication.

Check Backup Recoverability

Verify that your Active Directory backups are recoverable with the instant verification feature for VM backups. You can automate the verification workflows and run them without affecting your production network.
