With companies relying heavily on the data they collect and store with their computer systems, it is even more necessary to protect data. One way to do this is by having timely backups performed. However, Backups have become more complex than even just a decade ago. They no longer rely on a single system in a single location to provide backups. They can now be done remotely through server backup services Toronto. This solution offers a redundant backup of data which is an important aspect of any offsite disaster recovery solutions.
Data Security
Cyberattacks have greatly increased over the last decade. IT professionals across various industries all have the same concerns. Despite this, many still refuse to see any need to do anything but back up their data. They fail to see the benefit of disaster recovery solutions.
Below are some alarming realities:
- 29% of data loss are caused by accidents
- 30% of computers have malware
- 113 phones are lost or stolen each minute
Advantages of Off-Site Backups
There are many advantages to having backups stored in an off-site location. The biggest advantages are listed below:
- Cybersecurity
- Disaster Recovery
- Cost Reduction
- Access Data from anywhere
- Improved Security
- Scalability
Cybersecurity
Local backups can be prone to malware and malicious software attacks. When your company’s data systems are attacked, both production data and on-site backups will also be affected and most likely lost. With data backed up to a remote site, that data won’t be compromised. It is uncompromised data that can be restored quickly and easily.
Disaster Recovery
Using off-site backups ensures that company data remains safe. By storing it in another location, even if the office is destroyed by flood, fire, tornado, or hurricane, the data isn’t lost. Data stored in off-site cloud-based systems can be restored quickly and easily. They can also provide unlimited storage for Canadian online backups.
Cost Reduction
Off-site server backup services Toronto can be less expensive than maintaining on-site backups at the office. The cloud eliminates the need to purchase and maintain both hardware and software to manage your backup systems. The service provider handles all those requirements.
Access Data from Anywhere
With Canadian online backup your backup data can be accessed via the internet from any location at any time via secure user login. It provides peace of mind to know that the data is both secure and accessible.
Improved Security
Cloud providers offer the best cybersecurity technicians to secure data. Their staff are cybersecurity experts with the latest certifications. This saves you from having to hire a knowledgeable workforce and regularly upskill them with the latest certifications.
Scalability
Your off-site backup solution can grow as your company’s data needs grow. With on-site backups you're pushed to increase the storage space by spending money and resources rigidly.. With a cloud-based system, the amount of leased storage is simply increased as needed.
