Benefits
The Business-Critical Benefits of Identity Backup & Restore
Whether you’ve got a single-object mistake on your hands or a large-scale disaster impacting the entire business, Vault offers a no-stress approach to identity resilience powered by continuous capture and seamless restore on Okta and Microsoft Entra.
Forget the “no undo” panic
Restore one user, one policy, or an entire scope to your chosen precise moment in time. Vault gives you the flexible undo button native tools don’t typically offer.
Faster recovery & clear timelines
Every restore starts with a mandatory dry run, so your team knows what will change and how long it takes before committing, so you can plan your restore for the right moment.
Reduced breach & error impact
Continuous, object-level capture shrinks the blast radius of any single incident. Whether it’s a single object or your entire infrastructure, you can restore precisely what was affected.
Protection at any stage
Vault protects before, during, and after migration with auto-snapshots of changes as they happen. But you don’t need to be migrating to protect identity infrastructure on Okta and Entra.
Full accountability on one timeline
See exactly who changed what, when, across both Okta and Entra — including changes Beam itself makes.
Lower cost of identity resilience
One platform that understands both directories replaces a disconnected backup point-tool layered on top.
Beam vs. Standalone Backup

Wins Every Time
