About Backup & Storage
Backup and storage are critical components of modern IT strategies, ensuring that data remains available, protected, and recoverable in the event of system failures, cyberattacks, or accidental loss. At its core, backup refers to the process of creating copies of data, while storage focuses on where and how that data is kept for both day-to-day access and long-term retention. Together, these technologies form the backbone of business continuity and disaster recovery plans.
