Data protection can become a tedious process for many. However, recently it has gained greater importance as, storing, shifting, managing and processing professional data has become mandatory for every organization as any loss of data can lead to huge losses and detrimental to their reputation. In most cases, data is lost owing to reasons such as:
- Physical causes – System and hardware malfunctioning like disk controller failures.
- Natural Disasters – Calamities such and floods can wipe out an entire data center.
- Human errors – This takes places in two forms, namely unintentional human errors/ accidents and intentional error that are deliberately done to steal important data.
- Logical Causes – Software corruption, i.e. a software containing bugs that results in data corruption.
