Azure Backup provides security features to help protect backup data even after deletion. One such feature is [soft delete](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/backup/backup-azure-security-feature-cloud#soft-delete). With soft delete, if a malicious actor deletes the backup of a VM (or backup data is accidentally deleted), the backup data is retained for 14 additional days, allowing the recovery of that backup item with no data loss. The additional 14 days retention of backup data in the "soft delete" state doesn't incur any cost to the customer.

* **Recovery**: Deleted backup data is retained for an additional 14 days from the date of deletion. This ensures recoverability of the data within a given time period, so there's no data loss even if an attack happens. Also, a greater number of minimum recovery points are maintained to guard against corrupt data.
