Embrace your geek!
Geeks of the world unite and celebrate! July 13th is national geek day! This means that on this day you have the chance to let your inner geek out…if you want to!

As national geek day is coming up I thought it would be a good idea to give you some helpful tips on backup as this is a problem many of our customers face:
- Backup regularly – Make sure you are backing up your data every day or week!
- Use dedicated software to do your backup – It takes a lot of time to do backups manually, so use dedicated software that schedules and backs up your system automatically.
- Password protect back-ups – Use a strong password to secure your back-up. This will make it much more difficult, if not impossible, for someone to view it or misuse it.
- Offsite or online storage of back-ups – You should ensure that you create additional copies of your data so that they can be stored offsite. Having an offsite copy ensures that in the event of a break in or fire that you have a copy of your data away from the danger.
- Make sure you are backing up your phone too – It really is important to backup your phone data incase it gets lost of stolen. A lot of phones have basic backup installed in them but sometimes that’s not enough. Make sure you are backing up your data regularly on your mobile.
