Online Backup or Tape Backup - confused about which to choose?

We work in an increasingly data driven business environment where your business critical data is the core of your business. It is estimated that 60% of companies that lose their data shut down within 6 months. We are all aware of the pifalls of inadequate backups - the problem is what to do about it. What s the most effective way to backup and secure your data?
Online backup or tape - what s the answer? As with a lot of things in life the answer is not straightforward and the solution probably falls somewhere in the middle. In other words a combination of tape and online backup could be the answer for your business.
Tape technology has evolved over the last 50 years into the high performance medium we use today -but is has drawbacks. One of the issues with tape backup is that it is a mechanical device that needs human intervention. Mechanisms break and human beings can forget to change the tape or take copies off site. The tape is prone to wear and tear and the issues surrounding off site storage and retrieval are not to be underestimated.
Online backup solves a lot of the issues associated with tape backup but it is not without drawbacks. If you have large quantities of data to backup cost can be an issue. Online backup software needs a certain amount of IT expertise to install and maintain and in most cases online backup relies totally on a broadband Internet connection. Internet connections are reliable but they are not 100%.
Is cost an issue? Backing up online could be costly if you have large quantities of data to backup. Your answer may be to take advantage of online backup;but only for your vital data. You need to consider,very carefully, the data critical areas of your business. To help you brainstorm some ideas I ve listed below some areas you need to take into account. Business continuity. Legal requirements Regulatory requirements Data protection regulations Disaster recovery. Inland revenue requirements Customer data Supplier data Payroll records VAT Product specs Email
These are just a few of the areas you need to consider. Depending on your type of business and where you operate there may well be other vital areas you need to cover. Take the advice of both your company accountant and lawyer when drawing up your data backup strategy.
Most Important. Whatever decision you make between online backup,tape, or a combination of both make sure you backup your vital data. Don t become one of the companies that each year shut their doors and fold because they failed to secure their most valuable asset - their data.
Last but not least. Online backup or tape - make sure you test your backups. You should carry out regular retrievals to make sure your data is being backup up correctly. Don t wait to have a disaster before you realise your backup data is corrupt and unrecoverable.

Three Steps To Windows Safety Heaven

Now there are Three Steps To Heaven
Just listen and you will plainly see
How virus and hackers attack and destroy
Your precious internet-connected computer toy
Just follow steps one, two and three

Step one Run windows update automatically each day
Step Two Always keep your antivirus running and updated
Step Three Install and configure a firewall

Faster Virus

Today can many viruses find and infect a computer connecting to internet in less then 5 minutes, even if the computer connects to internet using a modem. And how much time will the 24/7 connected computer not give the bad guys?

So leaving a computer without proper protection is not advisable.

What to do?

There are measures one can do to bring down the risk of intrusion, virus attacks and similar, to a level so low that it is acceptable even for a large corporation.

1. Use Microsoft Windows update. With an internet connection like dsl or adsl (continuous), set windows update too automatically to run each day. For modems, try to run it every time you go online.

2. Keep a good antivirus program installed (there are good commercial as well as free choices). Equally important, check the virus definition dates at least a couple of times per week. Making sure they really are updated.

3. Use a firewall. Buy a cheap hardware firewall. But remember that they only protect from incoming threats. For a two way protection, get a software firewall. Almost all software firewalls can protect you from incoming and outgoing unwanted traffic. However, it does this at the cost of a more complicated configuration.

Can you secure a computer completely?

Not if you attempt to use it for normally. Even military grade security has problems maintaining the security intact. There are just too many variables to consider.

So, keep important personal information encrypted or on a computer without network access (look at Paris Hilton in the news. She had her computer stolen with very, very personal information in it).

Companies should also make sure that they have addressed point 1-3 above.

Final Notes

There is something called backup! Everybody has heard it, most know what it is and only a few selected use it. I will say this only once.

Make regular backups on all-important data. This way can you at least restore it after reinstalling your computer (if viruses have a party in it).

Follow the advices outlined here and you will at least be three steps closer to heaven!
