Definition of Data Back in Under 100 Words

Data backup is the copying of data from computers and network systems, allowing retrieval if data loss occurs. There are many kinds of data backup services that verify business data is secure and important information isn’t lost in a natural disaster. Data is backed up locally, remotely, and even stored in the cloud.


Data loss, accidental or by theft, is one of the most significant concerns for businesses. IT outsourcing offers complete protection with a secure firewall, servers, malware, and virus protection. Backing up data in regular intervals ensures your protection while minimizing data loss or business interruption.
