Why backups must never be an afterthought in business.

Recently, a devastating fire destroyed a data center in South Korea, 858 terabytes of data were lost. Shockingly one primary system had zero backups. Experts are estimating that roughly 17% of the South Korean government has been affected, and that about eight years’ worth of data was lost. The fire took down email, websites, and part of the country’s emergency services.

Disasters can affect any organization, big or small.

• Can you business afford to lose years of emails, critical systems, or files?
• What would the cost of downtime, recovery, reputational damage, and regulatory consequences be to your business?
• Disasters that cause data loss come in many shapes and sizes: hardware fails, cyberattacks happen, devices get stolen, humans make mistakes.

Solid, regularly tested backups aren’t options. They’re your businesses safety net.

At minimum you should have:

• Multiple copies of critical data, one readily at hand and one separated from your network in case of ransomware encryption.
• Offsite / Cloud Backups
• Regularly tested and verified backups.
• Ideally you will also have bare metal backups of your mission critical computers / servers.
