This comprehensive guide explores the best practices, technologies, and solutions for effectively backing up document data, ensuring business continuity and safeguarding sensitive information against loss or breaches.

Implementing a solid backup strategy not only fulfills legal requirements but also builds trust with clients and stakeholders by demonstrating a commitment to data protection.
As the volume and importance of data grow, so does the necessity for robust backup solutions.
