A backup is a duplicate record of computer or server information. Backups are stored locally or at an off-site location.

3 Types of Backups

1. Full Backup: Takes a complete backup of all files, directories, and settings on a computer.
2. Differential Backups: Backs up files created or changed since the last full backup.
3. Incremental Backups: Backs up only files that have changed since the last backup operation.

Backup Storage Options

Local Backups: Storage on the server itself.
Offsite Backups: Stored in a different geographical location.

Keep your data safe by backing it up. Implement daily, weekly, and monthly backups.
