LOS ANGELES, Sept. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — IDrive, a leading provider of cloud backup and storage solutions, extends its cloud-to-cloud data protection offerings for educational institutions with Google Workspace Backup and Google Classroom, helping schools, colleges, and universities protect critical academic, administrative, and student data from accidental deletion, ransomware, and other data-loss events.
As educational institutions increasingly depend on cloud applications for teaching, communication, collaboration, and administration, critical data is being created and stored across multiple platforms. While these services provide powerful tools for education, organizations remain responsible for protecting their data and ensuring it can be recovered when needed.
Protecting the Digital Classroom with Google Classroom Backup
Google Classroom has become an integral part of digital learning, providing educators with a centralized platform to manage classes, distribute assignments, communicate with students, organize course materials, and track grades. However, classroom data can be vulnerable to accidental deletion, compromised accounts, malicious activity, ransomware, and other events that can disrupt learning and result in the loss of valuable educational information.
IDrive Google Classroom Backup provides educational institutions with an additional layer of cloud-to-cloud protection by backing up critical Classroom data to IDrive’s secure cloud infrastructure. The solution protects complete classroom environments, including announcements, classwork, people information, grades, and associated Google Drive files.
Key features of Google Classroom Backup by IDrive include:
Complete classroom protection โ Back up announcements, classwork, people, grades, and associated Drive files.
Automated backups โ Perform up to three automated backups per day, providing multiple recovery points.
Point-in-time recovery โ Maintain snapshots of backed-up data and restore information to a previous point in time.

Ransomware and accidental-deletion protection โ Recover classroom data from a backup created before data was deleted, corrupted, or compromised.
