Backup Grows in Importance as Data Loss Becomes More Likely

computerFrustration

You never think that anything terrible is going to happen to your business. This is why a lot of business owners won’t have protections in place for their organization’s data. Unfortunately, there are a lot of different things that can happen that can really hinder your business’ ability to operate. Let’s take a look at some of the things that you need to consider when it comes to data protection.

Natural Disasters

Some places don’t have to deal with some of the weather that others do, but no matter where you are you can come across some weather that can wreak havoc with your business. You may not have to worry about hurricanes or tornadoes, but any place can get severe storms that can cause major wind and water damage.  

Sure, having a reliable data backup won’t prevent weather, but it can ensure that your data is protected, regardless of how your brick-and-mortar location makes out in any storm. Not only do you need to back up your data, but you also need to put together a comprehensive business continuity plan; something that our Computerware technicians can help you with.

Hardware Failure

Computer components are typically resilient for the first couple of years, but after some time, technology fails. If your technology fails without a dedicated data backup in place, your business could have a really hard time sustaining operations. Work will have to be redone and, depending on what you lose, it could cost you quite a bit. 

User Error or Malware

Your business is constantly at risk of dealing with man-made data loss. Consider that users can accidentally corrupt or delete data and if you aren’t backed up, you are injecting more costs into your operations. What’s worse is that in today’s threat landscape, your data is constantly in danger of being lost or stolen by hackers. With comprehensive data backup and recovery, you can forge ahead confidently. 

Your business needs to have your data backed up and a comprehensive business continuity plan in place to help you get through potential disasters (and to give you peace of mind). Give the IT experts at Computerware a call today to talk to us about building a business continuity plan that includes data backup and disaster recovery.
