Her research και της B2B International έδειξε ότι σχεδόν ένας στους τέσσερις χρήστες (24%) που διατηρούσε αντίγραφα ασφαλείας των δεδομένων του σε φυσικά μέσα, κατέληξε να τα χάσει. Σήμερα, οι πληροφορίες είναι ιδιαίτερα πολύτιμες, οπότε είναι σημαντικό ο χρήστης όχι μόνο να δημιουργεί αντίγραφα των αρχείων του σε περίπτωση που αυτά χαθούν, αλλά να το κάνει και σωστά.cloud backup Kaspersky Lab Kaspersky Lab

The survey revealed that while the vast majority (92%) of respondents stored their confidential information (e.g. private mail, photos, passwords ς, οικονομικά ), at , less than a third of respondents had considered creating backups in case of data loss.

According to the Kaspersky Lab survey, 29% of users did not take such security measures and 11% did not even intend to do so in the future.

The research has also highlighted that even backing does not guarantee that the data will not be lost.

The physical storage media, such as hard disks and USB, remained the most popular method for creating and keeping backups, with 87% of respondents using them, and as soon as 12% uses cloud services.

However, those who preferred physical storage, that is, almost one in four users (24%), suffered irreparable data loss because the storage device was lost, spoiled or stolen.

"By adopting a systematic approach to backing up, users can protect their data. All it takes is to decide what information is most valuable to them and to back up on a regular basis. The best way to safely keep important information is in encrypted folders, which will be stored both in physical media and in a cloud storage environment. So, users' data will be protected, even in extremely unlikely cases, "she said Elena Kharchenko, Kaspersky Lab's Head of Consumer Product Management.

With the version of Kaspersky Total Security — Multi-Device for Windows devices, users can create protected backups quickly, easily and automatically. Copies can be stored on the computer's hard drive, as well as on an external storage medium (network drive, optical disc, flash memory) or in the cloud.

They can also use encryption technology to ensure that their data will not fall into the wrong hands, protecting files or even entire folders with codes known only to the data owner.
