How DATA is LOST

Over 95% of the population and the companies I speak with have experienced data loss. However, the sad reality is that most companies are woefully unprepared and do not understand the serious risk of data loss.
You have a disaster recovery plan?

The data is stored on your computer can be lost in many ways. Many people are not aware of the different ways in which their data can be jeopardized.

First, there are the obvious ways:

Physical damage to the computer, such as fire or water damage, is a sure way to lose all the data on your computer. While insurance may cover physical damage to your machine (s), and you might be able to replace the existing hardware, no assurance can resurrect your data.

Another common way that people lose the data you have worked so hard to build is theft. Since damage to your computer through various natural disasters, the insurance may cover the material, but no policy will be able to save the information stored on your hard drive and other physical media.

Without some kind of backup solution, your data is at risk every day.

There are many other things that can happen that can cause partial or complete loss of data. Other common side effects were:

Data corruption (no checks CRC or MD5)

Failure on the hard disk (the oldest of a hard drive is going to get the MTBF, or "MTBF" each disc is designed for the plant)

OS Error (is not uncommon for a machine fails to restart after being substituted critical system files, such as when applying a service pack or update Windows driver).

Human error - simply the accidental deletion of a file or directory that happens more often than you think. Not to mention the elimination of "chance" by a disgruntled employee.

Viruses and worms - even if the protection of these digital parasites is easily accessible and general use, loss of data associated with them is still widespread.

These are just some of the hazards that can affect the team not backups in a timely manner.

Right now you may be wondering, "What I can do?" In fact, there is a simple solution for all your needs for data integrity: data backup offsite.

Unlike backups, you may be accustomed to with tape drives or other removable media, data backup offsite provides a more transparent and user-friendly solution, in addition to the added security storage of your files in a safe place that is guaranteed to keep them safe (remember, if your office burns down, not only your workstation loses its data, but backups on tape will probably be destroyed as well, except that Fireproof storage expensive.

Backup data off-site is easy to set up and protect your data more secure economically. If you implement a data backup of your company or personal computers, do yourself a favor and consider using a backup service secure remote backup. This is the simplest and most effective disaster recovery.

Your data is your life. Protect.
