1. Backup methods<br />Due to major and occasional problems and viruses that attack our computer, the risk of losing our data is greater than 50%, especially after using the computer for a long time. It is stated that: <br />“As much as 60% of corporate data resides unprotected on PC desktops and laptops.<br />(IDC analyst Cynthia Doyle, Business Continuity in 2002: It's Not Business as Usual, April 2002)<br />Viruses: Survey finds PCs infected at a rate of more than 10% each month.<br />(ICSA Labs, 2002)ˡ<br />It is also mentioned that: <br />“A long-term survey of computer-related economic losses conducted by Robert Courtney, a computer security consultant and former member of the Computer System Security and Privacy Advisory Board, found that 65 percent of losses to organizations were the result of errors and omissions.22 This figure was relatively consistent between both private and public sector organizations.”ҙ<br />I normally make back up whenever I feel it’s needed, especially when I add something of important. <br />Although I know that I can buck up my files automatically by using some software, but I use the manual way <br />I use two kind of USB one that has a protected password and I keep it in a bank safe box, this one contain most important and personal information. The second one I use it for my daily use. <br />If hired by a company I will make sure that their data and information are safe, by using anti-virus software and keeping my computer use in a professional way rather than consulting website that might be suspicious.<br />Bibliography BIBLIOGRAPHY Computer Security Division .
