Backup tools are designed to create secure copies of your data, storing them safely for when you need to recover lost files. It sounds foolproof—until it’s not.
Many businesses assume that having backup and recovery tools means their data is completely safe. Unfortunately, that’s not always the case.
Recent reports show that a significant portion of data loss—about one-third—is actually caused by issues with backup systems themselves. When disaster strikes, businesses often find out too late that their backup files are corrupted or incomplete.
But data corruption isn’t the only issue to worry about.
Ransomware attacks are currently one of the most serious threats to business data. This malicious software locks down your files, demanding a ransom for access. Shockingly, the report revealed that even businesses with backup tools in place often end up paying the ransom because it’s quicker than attempting recovery.
And here’s the kicker: few companies that pay the ransom ever get all their data back.
So why are backup tools letting businesses down when they need them most?
It often comes down to poor setup or lack of regular verification. Even a properly configured backup system needs consistent monitoring to ensure it’s functioning correctly. Outdated backup tools can also struggle to keep up with the latest cyber threats.
