A proper backup strategy is one where backups are completed daily, with multiple copies of data, and at least one copy taken off site.
There are a number of different options for backups including tape drives, external hard drives and internet based storage. If you data is important to you, multiple copies or a combination of back-ups is essential.
Consider the following:
[listcheck]
- Do we backup daily?
- Do we backup onto multiple media so that we could restore a backup from a week ago?
- Do we take a copy of our data off site for safe storage?
- Do we test our backups to make sure we can recover data from them?
