Whether through hardware failure, malicious software, or theft, losing your data is never fun. Too often, we don’t think about it until after an incident has taken place, but it doesn’t have to be that way.
That’s the goal of World Backup Day – to think about (and create) backups before something happens. After all, it’s not a matter of if you’re going to experience data loss, but when.
Life is far less stressful if you’re able to simply recover everything from a backup and go about your day. Think of it like a financial emergency fund – a proper backup will turn a major crisis into a minor inconvenience.
