Data backup is the process used to ensure recovery in the instance of equipment damage, theft, data corruption or accidental deletion. Backing up data is essentially taking a copy and storing it in another physical location. Normally this process would be done on a regular basis so that in the event data loss, businesses can retrieve the most recent copy of data.

“Roughly one third of all UK Businesses and two-thirds of large businesses had a security incident that involved the loss of data (excluding viruses). A quarter had accidental systems failure, of which more than half (55%) had one such incident. Systems failure was most frequent in financial services and technology companies and least in small retailers.” ^[1]
