It won’t last forever, backup now!
Your systems are extremely valuable, they hold a tremendous amount of your data, and you don’t need us to tell you how important it is. While you may think having an on-site backup might be enough, or simply backing up to an external hard drive will save the day in your time of need, think again! Running old software and hardware is a ticking time bomb for multiple reasons, you’ll find out sooner than later, that not keeping up to date on top of your backups can lead to losing everything.
Services can cease to exist by the creators as and when they please, take Amazon for example. While not on the level of an entire system backup they are recently removing a feature that allowed users to backup their purchased books onto their computers. That is no longer an option for users, but what if we applied the same logic to your system backups? If you’re utilising cloud storage and one day the provider decides to seize operation, that’s your backups gone entirely.
You may also be thinking to yourself well I have the system itself to rely on, or on-site backup options, but this technology won’t last forever. Hard drives fail and corrupt out of seemingly nowhere, meaning you should have a third-party backup to avoid losing everything. On top of that, you should have multiple backups, only having one safety net to rely on could also lead to you waving your backups goodbye.
It’s not just outdated physical hardware you should be wary of, outdated software leaves you open to the potential threat of cyber attackers. Software updates are more often than not to patch discovered security vulnerabilities, these are utilised by attackers who target users who haven’t updated and are vulnerable. Always be sure to update your software as and when an update is rolled out, to ensure that you have the most protected version of the software you are using.
