Despite all protections and precautions taken, they may get access and block your information. With the appropriate periodic backup policy, not only will you avoid losing information in case of a mobile device theft or loss (smartphone, laptop...), but also avoid information theft in those cyberattacks where data access is encrypted or blocked.
If your data are backed up every once in a while to a remote location, you may recover them easily and quicky, affecting your business, your work and your clients as little as possible. Of course without paying an unnecessary ransom that will negatively affect the corporate image.
Therefore, it is important to use safe devices and locations to store those backups. Information recovery must be guaranteed at any time and under any kind of situation. Carrying out tests or drills to guarantee backup integrity must be an essential task comprised in your safety policies.
