Three Reasons Why You Need a Backup Service

Ellen     9 May 2018     Backup & Disaster Recovery     0 Comments

A remote backup service is an offsite data storage solution that provides businesses with incomparable levels of security and stability. If you're considering adding a backup service coupled with a high available disaster recovery solution, it's best to implement this measure sooner rather than later. An offsite backup service can mean the difference between a quick recovery or an overturned business.

 

No Backup Service Means Potential Disaster

Your data storage location can make all the difference in terms of security. Do you store all of your files onsite? You may want to reconsider. Onsite data is more vulnerable than offsite data for two major reasons. First, onsite data can become a relatively easy target for hackers. Remote service encryption stays one step ahead of hackers, who are constantly learning and adjusting their techniques. Onsite data protection can't change unless you change it. How often do you remember to update your storage security measures? Second, hardware-only files are only as physically safe as the computers on which you store them. Floods, fires, and other natural disasters can wipe away important information if you don't have a way to get those files back. You may or may not have a plan to protect employees in case of emergency. Do you have a plan to protect your data too?

 

You Need to Protect Critical Data

Some industries absolutely need a backup service. They protect more critical data than others. The financial sector protects information that could destroy livelihoods if it became vulnerable. The healthcare industry stores highly sensitive information. Patients trust that their privacy stays safe within medical facilities. If a disaster breaks that trust, a medical facility could find itself in extreme legal and financial trouble. Offsite encryption keeps this data safe. Even if your business remains outside of finance or medicine, you can still ensure protection with offsite backup. The added protection leads to added trust with your clients, which means that you retain your customers for repeat business.

 

Solutions for Business Growth

If you want to grow your business, a backup service will help. Offsite storage will make your life easier. You won't have to update security, buy more hardware, or expand your own storage. Instead, you can focus on other areas of growth. Your backup service will manage your data for you. Backup services are scalable, meaning that they grow with your needs. As your business expands, so does your storage. You'll get the added benefit of IT support as well. With onsite storage, you'll have limited support as you increase your data. With a backup service, experts stand ready to answer any questions you may have.
