Why You Can't Afford Not to Get an Exchange Backup Installed

One reason why many companies decide not to back up their data is because they think they have already taken all the proper precautions with their server. They have a firewall installed that they think will protect them from all viruses, but because viruses and all kinds of malicious software changes on a daily basis, there really is no firewall that can protect you. The world's largest companies can't protect themselves from viruses, so why do you think you can?

By having an affordable Exchange backup program running, you will always be ready in case a virus does get into your server. This can happen as a result of an employee doing something stupid, or the virus could be attached to a legitimate transaction. There are simply so many different ways that your server could be attacked that if you don't have an Exchange backup running, you are making a serious mistake, and one that could end up costing you a lot of time and money.

In reality, the price of a piece of backup software is miniscule in comparison to the cost of rebuilding an entire server, getting all the users back online, and trying to find good copies of old data. Getting your server backed up now is the best thing you could ever do, and one that could end up saving your company.
