The first of August was a really bad day for all those attending Stepping Hill hospital when a laptop that contained confidential data about 1,581 patients was stolen.
This is just one of many data loss incidents where valuable and important data has been lost because of a silly mistake – saving the data on outdated storage devices like a pen drive or a hard disk. There is a need for a more secure and safer storage option and this is why companies are now opting for online data backup and online storage.
Now you can upload all your data through the internet into an online vault and in the event of data loss or theft, all you will have to do is download this data and you can get back to normal. This will protect you from losing all your important data in the event of a server crash, computer failure, system errors or whatever. Data stored in portable storage devices like laptops, memory sticks, CDs, DVDs and so forth, is always susceptible to loss. Online data storage and data backup makes the need for these devices redundant as employees can access data from anywhere using an internet connection.
With online backup, you do not have to worry about data loss or theft.
