Backup and Restoration
what is Backup and Restoration ?
Backup and Restoration is a crucial process in information technology that involves creating copies of data to protect it from loss, corruption, or accidental deletion. Backup refers to the process of securely copying and storing data from computers, servers, or other devices to a separate location, such as external drives, cloud storage, or network-attached storage, ensuring that critical information is preserved. Restoration is the process of retrieving and recovering this backed-up data when the original data is lost, corrupted, or inaccessible due to hardware failures, software issues, cyberattacks, or human errors. Together, backup and restoration ensure business continuity, minimize downtime, and safeguard important digital assets, making them essential components of any data management and cybersecurity strategy.
