A backup solution is a system (software + hardware/cloud) that automatically copies data from its primary location (computer, server, cloud) to a secure, secondary location (external drive, NAS, cloud) to protect it from loss due to hardware failure, cyberattacks, disasters, or human error, allowing for quick restoration to maintain business continuity and personal data safety.
Data is the lifeblood of modern business. Losing it can mean closing your doors. A tiered backup strategy (3-2-1 rule) ensures that no matter what happens—fire, flood, or hack—your critical information is safe and recoverable within minutes, minimizing downtime and financial loss.
