Are you backed up? Most people have no idea how vulnerable their companies data is until a major catastrophic event happens. Even corrupted sectors on a hard disk can damage files and cost thousands of dollars to a company in lost business, productivity, and information. That is why it is more important than ever to have the right data backup plan.
Here are just a few reasons why your business needs the right backup plan.
Corrupt Hard Disk
A corrupted hard disk or crashed hard drive and cause you to lose all of your data. All hardware has a fail rate and it’s only a matter of time before it happens. A new hard drive may cost $90, but losing your information could cost you a lot more.
Ransomware
A new threat that has emerged just a few years ago. Ransomware is a piece of malware or a virus that encrypts your files and all the files on the network, rendering them unusable. Once encrypted, the only way to decrypt your files is with the decryption key; that the hackers would be more than happy to sell you for a very large fee. Many large companies have already been attacked by this new and profitable threat. One sure way to protect your data is to simply restore it from a recent backup once the malware/virus has been removed.
Employee Deletion
Accidents happen, and sometimes files get deleted my mistake. However, disgruntled employees have also been known to remove important files on purpose. With a regularly scheduled backup program, anything removed can be put back with a few clicks of a mouse.
Natural Disaster
Whether fire, flood or social unrest, having an off-site backup plan can help your business get back on its feet in no time.
