Data Loss - Risk Analysis
|
General Info and
Statistics: |
| Only 1 in 6
companies have
an adequate
disaster
recovery plan. |
| Nearly 40%
of all backup
tapes used would
not restore data
correctly when
needed in a
system
emergency. |
| Industry
analysts report
that 50% of
businesses that
lose their data
never open their
doors again. |
| Of those
businesses that
do stay open 90%
end up failing
completely
within two
years. |
| Nearly 1 in
4 computers has
lost content to
hackers,
viruses,
blackouts, or
electrical
failure. |
| 69% of
business
computer users
back up their
data less than
once a month if
ever. |
| Due to a
laptop’s
portability,
they are more
susceptible to
loss, theft or
damage. As a
result, the need
for an automated
system of repair
and recovery of
data is
essential for
remote and
mobile users. |
| Any theft of
backup tapes or
zip disks, will
result in
someone having
access to all
your data, since
these tapes and
disks are not
encrypted. |
|
A virus, if
undetected, will
end up infecting
all of your
backup tapes and
disks. Any
corruption of
your data files
will end up
corrupting your
backup. |
