The Day After World Backup Day: Why Everyday Should Be Backup Day

Yesterday, we marked World Backup Day, an annual reminder to individuals and businesses about the critical importance of backing up data. But while dedicating one day to raising awareness is beneficial, the harsh reality is that data threats do not operate on a schedule. Cyberattacks, system failures, and unforeseen disasters can strike at any moment, which means that the practice of backing up critical business data needs to be an ongoing commitment, not just a once-a-year event.

The Unseen Cost of Data Loss

For businesses, data isn't just information; it's the backbone of operations, customer relationships, and strategic planning. Losing data can mean lost revenue, compromised customer trust, and in severe cases, the closure of the business itself. Despite this, a surprising number of organizations do not have a consistent backup strategy, leaving them vulnerable to a myriad of risks.
