THE IMPORTANCE OF NETWORK REDUNDANCY

In today’s digital era, most businesses couldn’t do without a reliable internet and phone connection. However, recent events have shown us the potential risks of relying on a single network source.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DELETE A FILE?

When you delete a file, it disappears from your desktop. That can be helpful to clear up clutter and give you a sense of accomplishment, or it can cause a panic spiral as you worry that you’ve lost a week’s worth of work. Either way, it may help to better understand what really happens when you delete a file.

IS YOUR BACKUP SAFE?

Backups are the go-to to keep you safe in the event of ransomware or data threats. But the bad guys expect your business to backup. The question is, are you keeping your backups safe?

DO YOU BACKUP OR ARCHIVE?

It goes without saying that your data is vitally important to your business. Lose data, and you could be out of business for a while, or maybe for good.

But many business owners don’t completely understand how to protect their data. It’s not complicated, but you need to understand the two most basic data protection methods.

In this article, we’ll explain the differences between backing up and archiving data, and why each is important.

WAITING FOR SOMETHING BAD TO HAPPEN?

You’ve thought it before: “that won’t happen to me.” It’s how humans get through most of their days without crippling fear. But when it comes to your business and its cybersecurity, this kind of blithe naïveté can prove costly.

It’s estimated that 46% of users lose data each year. Yet businesses may not invest in proactive data backup. They think data loss won’t impact them or don’t know how to back up in the first place.

CLOUD DATA MANAGEMENT

Your business is backing up its data in case of cyberattack or other disastrous disruption. Yes, you can pat yourself on the back for that, but don’t get too complacent with backing up. Automated backup still needs monitoring and management.

REMOTE WORK BACKUPS

Working from home is no longer only for a few employees in special circumstances. The pandemic pushed many businesses to enable remote work. The priority was getting it working and securing access. Now that it’s routine, it’s also time to consider how you back up work from home.

Data backup creates a reliable copy of business data. An accessible, accurate backup prepares you for system failures, data corruption or deletion, natural disaster, or a security breach.

BACKUP RECOVERY TESTING

Most businesses are aware of the need for data backup. Without it they risk losing important files in the event of a hard drive failure or cyberattack. Yet having a backup in place isn’t enough: it’s important also to test that backup. Ensure that you are able to restore that essential data when you need it.

TO ARCHIVE OR TO BACKUP?

Hamlet worried about whether to be or not. You may be more preoccupied with whether archiving or backup is better for your business. You know you need to secure your data, but how? This article examines the different benefits of both options.
