December 2023 by Jon Fielding, Managing Director, EMEA, Apricorn
The comment from Jon Fielding, Managing Director, EMEA, Apricorn in response to news that Google has frozen a chat group that disputed that its Drive data loss issue has been fixed, as reported here:
“Irrespective of whether the issue has been fixed or not, this article highlights the need to maintain your own off-line back up (and ideally encrypted) back up of your data when your primary production site is in the cloud. Organisations should follow the 3–2 – 1 rule. This is where at least three copies of data are held on at least two different types of media with at least one copy held off-line.”
