Frequently asked questions
Regular data backups are essential to protect against data loss due to hardware failures, cyber attacks, accidental deletions, or other unforeseen events. By backing up your data, you ensure that critical information can be restored quickly, minimising downtime and potential business disruption.
You should back up all critical data, including files and folders, databases, emails, and configurations. It’s also important to back up entire devices, such as laptops and servers, to ensure you can recover both the data and the system environment in case of a complete failure.
The frequency of backups depends on how often your data changes. For most businesses, daily backups are recommended to ensure minimal data loss in the event of a problem. For highly dynamic environments, more frequent backups, such as hourly, may be necessary.
- Full backup: A complete copy of all your data is made, which can take more time and storage space.
- Incremental backup: Only data that has changed since the last backup is saved, which is faster and uses less space.
- Differential backup: This backs up data that has changed since the last full backup, offering a balance between full and incremental backups in terms of speed and storage.
It’s advisable to use both cloud and local backups for a comprehensive data protection strategy. Cloud backups provide off-site storage, protecting your data from localised disasters, while local backups offer quick access and recovery in case of hardware failure or accidental deletion.
- File and folder backup: This type of backup only saves individual files and folders that you select, which is useful for protecting specific important documents or data.
- Full system backup: This involves backing up the entire system, including the operating system, applications, settings, and all data. This is ideal for recovering a system completely in case of a major failure or when migrating to a new device.
Yes, if you’ve backed up the file, you can restore it from your backup. The process will depend on the type of backup solution you’re using. Most backup software and cloud services have an easy-to-use interface where you can search for and restore deleted files.
Email backups can be done using various methods, depending on your email provider. For example, if you use Microsoft 365, you can use built-in tools to back up emails to the cloud. Alternatively, third-party solutions can automate email backups to ensure all communications are preserved.
Not having a backup exposes your business to significant risks, including data loss due to hardware failure, cyber attacks, accidental deletions, or disasters. This can lead to operational downtime, financial losses, and damage to your reputation. Without backups, recovering lost data can be time-consuming, expensive, or even impossible.
The 3-2-1 backup strategy involves keeping three copies of your data, on two different storage types, with one stored offsite (e.g., in the cloud). At Cyber United, we implement this best-practice strategy to ensure that your data is always available and recoverable. Learn more about this strategy from Acronis.
Yes, with Cyber United’s cloud backup services, you can securely access your backed-up data from anywhere with an internet connection. This flexibility allows your business to recover files remotely if needed, providing peace of mind.
Cloud backup services store your data online, ensuring offsite protection, while local backups store your data on physical devices like external drives or servers. Cyber United offers both options, helping you choose the right backup solution based on your needs.
