Dear
Hope you are having a splendid day.
This week, we've got some exciting updates and insights to share with you, so stay tuned!
Cyber Attacks Are On The Rise: How Are You Protecting Yourself?
Did you know that 48% of small businesses have experienced cyber-attacks in the past year? You can avoid being a victim by getting prepared ahead.
The key to getting prepared? Developing a business continuity plan.
What is a Business Continuity Plan?
Business Continuity Plan (BCP) is a document that outlines the strategies and procedures for Spurt! to maintain critical business functions during a disruption or cyberattack. Having a plan to keep your business running smoothly even during disruptions is important.
One essential part of business continuity is data backup. By having reliable data backups, you can quickly recover from data loss or data corruption, allowing your operations to continue seamlessly.
Regular Backups:
Regularly backing up your data ensures that you always have access to the most recent information.
Whether it’s customer records, financial data, or critical documents, having up-to-date backups minimises potential losses during a disaster.
Backup Methods:
Data backup doesn’t have to be complicated. You can use various methods.
External Hard Drives: These provide a physical backup solution. Regularly copy your data onto an external drive and store it securely.
Disk Tapes: Although less common today, tape backups remain reliable for long-term storage.
Cloud Providers: Cloud-based backups offer convenience and scalability. Services like Google Drive, Dropbox, or Microsoft OneDrive allow you to store data securely offsite.
Strategic Assets:
Think of data backups as a strategic asset for your business continuity.
They go beyond mere preservation; they’re about maintaining essential functions for your business’s survival.
