Incorrect Backups? You'll Pay for That Mistake

Incorrect Backups? You’ll Pay for That Mistake

In the end it will come down to one question.

That question being, “how much data can your company afford to lose? One hour? One day? One week?

Choose wisely or it could cost more than you think.

For example, if you’re a doctors office and you have backups running every other day, you may lose 12+ hours of patient data depending on when you get your system up and running again. That may be too much of a risk for some.

Our SQL Assessments can help evaluate your Backup and Recovery procedures and much more!

Proper database backups and recovery plans are critical for the following reasons:

Disaster Recovery:

Proper database backups and recovery plans ensure that in the event of a disaster, such as a hardware failure, software error, or cyber attack, critical data can be recovered and business operations can be restored in a timely manner. Without proper backups and recovery plans, data loss can occur, and the business can suffer significant downtime, lost productivity, and lost revenue.

Data Integrity:

Backups help ensure data integrity by providing a way to recover data that may have been accidentally or maliciously deleted or altered. A recovery plan ensures that these backups can be used to restore the database to its original state and ensure that the data remains accurate and consistent.

Risk Management:

Backups and recovery plans also help manage risk by providing a way to recover from unforeseen events that can impact the availability and security of critical data. By having a robust backup and recovery strategy in place, organizations can mitigate risk and ensure that they are prepared for any contingency.

Business Continuity:

Backups and recovery plans are essential components of a business continuity plan, which is designed to ensure that critical business functions can continue in the event of a disruption. Proper backups and recovery plans help ensure that the business can quickly recover from a disaster and resume normal operations.
