Data Backup Strategy

Tips And Suggestions

Make data backups a part of your normal scheduled. Your backup schedule is usually determined by how often your data changes.

Generally, perform a full backup at least once a month and a incremental backup every day.

It is a good idea to have at least two different backups of your data. Store one backup onsite and the other backup offsite or online.

Many businesses keep their onsite backups in a fire resistance safe and their offsite backups in a security box at a bank.

Test your data backups periodically by trying to restore your data on a test computer or server.
