Data Loss: Protect your Business against Data Loss

How often should you back up?

How often you need to back up depends on how often you use your computer or make changes to your files.

If you amend a database just once a week then you will only need to make a new copy of this file on a weekly basis, however if you use your computer every day and are creating new documents or regularly amending existing files then it's a good idea to make a backup copy of these changes at the end of each day.

It is important to have "an up to date" back up copy of your information available.
