All businesses lose data- it’s not a case of ‘if’ but ‘when’. If you're not making regular backups of crucial data, then you're risking your business. All hard drives fail sooner or later and even expensive recovery services can't always get your data back in such cases.
The false sense of security that irregular or unchecked backups provide quickly evaporates when it turns out that they’re months out of date, or worse, corrupt and unusable. Backing up to tape or external hard drive also places data at risk from corruption, fire, theft or accidental damage.
...The Solution
