Are you backing up your computer data files?

What if a fire or other disaster struck your home or office, or your hard drive suddenly failed? What if your computer was completely destroyed? Would you be able to recover your data, or would it be lost forever? In this day and age, these are questions we have to ask ourselves. So “what if” this were to occur? Do you have a disaster recovery plan in place? Or have you procrastinated, and put off secure data storage for another day?  Many businesses think about backing up their data about 5 minutes after a catastrophic data loss. These questions should make you think about how important your information is and how you should prepare for the worst.

One option is to back up to an external drive, but there is one important rule to backing up your data you need to understand. Your data files should exist in two places or it’s not fully protected.  Once data has been lost, it is lost, and there is no inexpensive way to recover it, if you can recover it at all. With this option you must backup and then take it to a second location leaving a lot of room for human error.

A secure, automated, online data backup solution is a great way to store data and have it in two places at the same time. Backing up your data does not need to be a difficult thing and using an online data backup is a great way to set it up and forget about it. You can feel confident your data is safe, and since the backup is automated, this provides less of a chance for things to go wrong due to human forgetfulness or error.
