Being aware of your backup position and strategy is critical in the modern IT environment, it is no longer sensible to simply rely on your IT provider telling you that your backup systems are working.
Backup strategy is critical and there are a multitude of factors that come into play, including where your data is and who protects and manages it, Restore Point/Time Objectives and immutability.

These must then align to the many external standards and bodies that now require you to ensure your backup strategies are fit for purpose and protect you and your business in the correct way, including many professional bodies and insurers.
Backup failures or regularly unreliable backups can be frustrating for businesses, causing potential problems with data loss and continuity in case of an incident.
