Human error, breakdowns, incidents, cyberattacks, theft... The loss of data may be the consequence of several factors and can have serious consequences on a company.
IT professionals need to be able to back up and restore data at any time for several reasons.
First, data is often vital for businesses and organizations. Data loss can cause serious problems, such as business interruptions, financial losses, and loss of trust among clients and partners. As a result, IT professionals have to ensure that data is backed up regularly to minimize the risk of loss.
To back up business data, IT professionals can implement multiple strategies, such as local and cloud backups. They need to elaborate a data backup and recovery strategy that determines the frequency and type of backup to be performed based on the importance of the data and its accessibility.
As an IT professional, you need to identify all the media that can store data and files essential for the proper running of the company: databases, contracts, invoices, quotes... These files must be saved in a secure environment outside the company that allows you to retrieve them easily and quickly if necessary (human error, failure, cyber attack...).
