Most of us today have built our life all around the machines from which computer is the one without which almost none of us can live without. All of our important data like the mails, spreadsheets, pictures, documents etc. We all have most of the important data on the PC but, only few of us emphasize on to the data protection. We all should worry about it.
We will today see what are the steps which will help us protect data.
The most important step is to back up the data in and that too in two locations one has to be the external hard drive and the other should be remote online backup of the data. You should categorize your data on the basis what kind of data to be stored on a remote back up and what kind of data should be be stored on the hard drive if you ask me I will suggest to make the mirror image of the data on to the hard drive and the crucial data should be saved online. This will help the crucial data to be saved from corruption as well as theft.
The other way to protect your data is to get your anti virus updated every now and then which will protect your system from the malicious software that can affect adversely on the computer.
Only way in which data loss can't be prevented the data recovery is also not possible until and unless you have a back up is, because of the theft what we can do is apply some brains while using laptops as the desktops are bit more difficult to steel in comparison to the laptops, so never keep your laptop in a unsupervised place, never leave the laptop in a public place like coffee shop. All these steps can only reduce the chances that your data is protected but one can guarantee it.
Even if after taking all the precautions if you loose the data then also the data recovery is really possible it then if you are using the optical media like the CD, DVD, or might be working on any operating system like Windows , mac or Linux data recovery is possible for all. So at the end of the discussion I would like to say that prevention is better that cure if by taking some measures if the data can be protected then why use those data recovery tools.
