Backing up your data

Importance of data backup for SMEs and effects of data loss

The more critical the information, the more money is invested in data backup. This is evidenced by the global sales figures for backup and recovery software. According to the leading market research institute IDC, this software recorded an increase of 2.5% to 4.4 billion dollars in the fourth quarter of 2015.

Data backup is not only important for large companies, but also for small and medium-sized enterprises, as data loss can result in high costs. According to the market research company IDC, over 90% of companies that suffer a complete data loss file for bankruptcy within 12 months.

A study by Arcserve shows that the loss of critical data continues to be a problem for companies. In the study of IT decision makers (ITDMs), 76% of respondents reported that they had to recover critical data in their organization after a serious loss. Of these, 45 percent suffered a permanent loss of either some or all of their data. Data is a priceless asset. These findings highlight the importance of increasing the resilience of data availability with a robust data backup and recovery plan that focuses on data integrity to prevent serious business disruption.

The study also found that many organizations are unable to maintain business continuity when data is lost or compromised. Rapid recovery of data is critical for organizations, especially in a business where data must always be available.
