Automatic Backup vs. Thumb/HD/Tape Backups These days, full development schedules and towering to-do lists overflowing from yesterday can get in the way of your customers making sure that their data backups get done right and on time. Yet, server crashes and data loss are a reality, so backups must get done. The impact of data loss can be catastrophic. Most IT professionals will admit that manual backups can be tedious, but so is recovery from tape. There's nothing worse than going from tape to tape looking for an uncorrupted file or two that are simply not there because data was not being backed up regularly. In the worst cases, sometimes nothing can be done and the business takes a hit. Transitioning from manual to automatic backups is the answer. Automatic backups are critically important to ensuring that backups not only get done, but also are completed correctly. Even in the hands of the most competent and well-intentioned professionals, manual backups expose your customers' data to errors, omissions and data corruption. In a recovery emergency, corrupted data is useless. Manual backup media like tape, hard drives and thumbs are not meant for a long life and mobility because they are particularly susceptible to damage and degradation. More than half of all IT professionals experience tape failure at least once per week and degradation and damage play a role. What's more, taking data offsite on tape, thumb drive or hard drive exposes data to theft or accidental loss. Many states require companies to notify their customers if sensitive information like contact information and credit card data is lost or stolen. Imagine the bad press and potential liability for that kind of information getting into the wrong hands—"Gee, I could have sworn it was in the backseat (or trunk) of my car…or on that thumb drive I tucked into my shirt pocket…" Don't let that be your customer's best defense. Simply put, automatic backups eliminate the risk of lost data, corrupted files and theft.
