Data is now the foundation of nearly all business processes – yet the topic of backups is often underestimated in day-to-day operations. Cyberattacks, system failures, or human error can lead to massive data loss within seconds. The question is therefore not if something will happen – but when.
A functioning backup is not a “nice-to-have,” but a core component of any cybersecurity strategy. It is not just about storing data, but about:
- clear backup strategies
- regular recovery testing
- protection against manipulation (e.g., through ransomware)
- and integration into holistic security concepts
Today’s World Backup Day is a good opportunity to reassess existing structures:
Are your data truly secure – and can they be restored quickly in an emergency?
