User Manual

Regular back-ups protect against both accidental or malicious data loss - anything from hardware faults and
viruses to human error or theft - as they can be used to restore original data les.
Choosing the right media and back-up procedure depends on many elements:
• The amount of data being saved
• The perceived value of the data
• The levels of accepted risk
• The length of time you need to keep the data for

BACKUP COPY
In addition to your primary data,
you should also have at least
two more backups, which will
help signicantly reduce the risk
of losing data. These could be
physical and / or cloud solutions.
It is best practice to keep copies of
your data on at least two different
storage types, such as internal
hard disk drives AND removable
storage media (tapes, external
hard drives, USB drives, SD-cards,
CDs, DVDs.)
It’s obvious really, but it’s not a
good idea to keep your external
storage device in the same room
as your production storage.
If there is a re, ood or burglary -
you would lose all of your data.
