PROTECT THOSE CHRISTMAS FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHS
By Ken Newbold
Despite two-thirds of people in the UK having lost files after a hard drive failure or malware attack, 24 per cent of us never back up our data.
Research carried out by a company which offers online storage found that seven out of 10 people consider the files on their hard disk to be “extremely” or ‘”quite” important. The company was therefore surprised that such a high proportion of people don’t back up their files, especially considering the expense of digital music.
”The most surprising result from this survey is how many people do not back up at all. Anyone with a PC should regularly back up their files, including costly music and digital photos. Part of the problem is that people are unaware of how to back their files up using removable media or online back-up services.”
The number of people who simply do not know how to back up is a big concern. It is often the unsophisticated computer users who are most at risk from data loss, as they are more likely to open an email containing a virus or click through to a site that downloads spyware, malicious programs or other malware.
