Cost to a criminal v cost to you

Secure Backup

Threats and risks have become an increasing part of operating today.

Did you know that cybercrime earns cybercriminals trillions every year? According to dataprot and University of Surrey senior lecturer Michael McGuire*, the estimate:

Illicit, illegal online markets $860 billion
Trade secret & IP theft $500 billion
Data trading $160 billion
Crimeware, cybercrime-as-a-service $1.6 billion
Ransomware$1 billion

But what would be the cost to your business if you lost your critical data?

Your business data is the lifeblood of your company and the amount you are collecting and storing is growing all the time. Imagine the impact if you lost a day’s data, a week’s data, or a year’s data due to inadequate or infrequent backup processes.

These risks, such as malware, ransomware or even user error and hardware failures can bring progress to a halt — leading to devastating downtime costs that can have a critical impact on your business. The key to moving your business forward with resilience is a strong, secure backup and recovery.

Time for secure backup.

Designing, managing and administering in-house backup and data recovery is an ever-evolving challenge. New business demands, the multitude of content sources and different data formats add to the growing complexity of backup and recovery for businesses.

Secure cloud backup protects your data in real-time and saves your business from downtime and loss by utilising leading technology and processes via a cloud-based solution to safeguard your data.

Keep your business protected from everything — from human error, hardware failure and more.
