Last month in our newsletter we posted a process to test your network backups that anyone could do. The importance of backups cannot be stressed enough, but if you never run a "fire drill" on them, how do you know if they are working?
Typically, the IT person is watching the logs on the backup system to verify the backups were successful. While this is wonderful we are all human and things do fall through the cracks. What if you business cannot afford a full time IT person, who watches the backups then? Who tests them? How often?
I suggest you take our challenge and see what the results are. The old "better safe than sorry" philosophy applies here.
I like the analogy of your home owners insurance, if your house burns down you are covered, right? What if your business data is destroyed, what then?
