Data Theft
If your backups go away with the very computer
it was backing up, then you will have wasted every dollar and
every minute you have ever spent on backups up until that
point.
The theft or loss of a mission critical PC or
Server can be devastating to a business... especially if your backups are
stolen with the computer itself. Even used tapes can fetch $10-20 on the
black market, making them susceptible to theft.
You may think that you are prepared for such an event by
having business insurance, but you probably are thinking about just the
computer recovery costs... not the data recovery costs! More often than
not, data loss costs are not covered by your typical business insurance.
Computers can always be replaced, but data cannot. Losing a computer can cost
you only a couple thousand dollars, but losing your data and your
backups can cost you tens or even hundreds of thousands of
dollars.
If both the computer and the
backups are suddenly gone, exactly what would you do? Have you ever thought
about it? Could you continue with your business? Could you recreate it? How
much would it cost you in the long run? More than many years of our Remote Data
Backups service? Is it worth 33 cents to $1 a day to sleep well knowing that
your data is securely backed up offsite at
our two mirrored data centers every
night? |

What would happen if you lost your
laptop? Be aware that up to 15% or more laptops are stolen or suffer hard
drive failures any given year (Source: Gartner Group). Those are not
good odds when your livelihood depends on it.
Be prepared to recover
from data theft,
data sabotage and
human error with Remote Data Backups. |
