It\u2019s not always that they don\u2019t really have a strategy for it (although this happens more than we\u2019d like to admit), it\u2019s just how sure many of them are that they don\u2019t need to spend a lot of time and effort on it. This ambivalence is a major mistake that often leads to hardship. Today, we will talk a little bit about why backup is such a big deal.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Data Is a Big Deal<\/h2>\n<p>Your company\u2019s data is one of its major assets, and you take quite a bit of effort to protect it. You deploy antivirus, firewalls, intrusion detection, and other security tools designed to mitigate exposure to malware, hackers, and other deplorable situations like:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Human error (negligence and mistakes)<\/li>\n<li>Sabotage and theft<\/li>\n<li>Hardware malfunction<\/li>\n<li>Power surges<\/li>\n<li>Software corruption<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The minute something gets through your network\u2019s defenses, you are in deep trouble. If disaster hits your business and you don\u2019t have a reliable backup, you could not only lose continuity, you could lose it all. This wouldn\u2019t be so dire if you have a comprehensive business continuity strategy in place. Business continuity plans are just potential solutions to problems that threaten to take the business down.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>There are hundreds of different situations that could result in substantial data loss, but irregardless of the situation your business is in, having a strong backup and recovery plan lets you be prepared for any eventuality.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Today, there are a lot of different ways that you can back up your data and applications, but there really is only one that offers onsite and offsite backup, incremental backups, and the ability to recover data on demand. This solution is what we call a BDR. Short for backup and disaster recovery, our backup service allows you to configure the backup solution to fit your company\u2019s demands, while also providing all the high-end redundancy features that any business could need.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If your business is looking to protect its data from the litany of ways it can be corrupted or lost, the BDR is right for you.
