The solution itself is where data security starts. For CloudFence Technologies, this means you can depend on an integrated, machine-learning-based self-defense that protects against ransomware attacks that are launched on a zero-day basis. This self-defense mechanism safeguards all backup files, and your data from ransomware, including previously undiscovered strains.

When it comes to the cost of cloud backup services, you’ll invest in both the software solution(s), as well as the cloud storage you use. Cloud storage pricing can be divided into two categories: fixed rate and per-use. Per-user pricing is typically determined by the number of gigabytes (GB) required, which are allotted in ranges like 20–50GB, 50–100GB, etc. In other words, you only pay for the services you actually use.

By creating a cloud backup of your system(s), you can be sure that your data is safeguarded in the event of human error, hardware/software failure, natural disasters, cyberattacks, and other unforeseen circumstances that could damage your hardware, compromise your data, and compromise local backups. The 3-2-1 backup rule, which recommends maintaining three copies of your data across two types of media with one backup stored offsite, such as in the cloud, is generally accepted by experts to be good practice for both individuals and businesses.

In the event of a hardware/software failure, a disaster, or a cyberattack, local backups may be lost or compromised. This is why it's always advised to keep at least one backup copy offsite, either in the cloud or in a location at least 100 miles away from your main site. When compared to moving backup discs or tapes between facilities, storing a backup in the cloud is a much more effective and economical way to store an offsite backup.

A business cloud backup solution is essential for any business or enterprise because it adds an extra layer of protection for critical data and ensures that it is easily accessible in the event of a disaster or server failure. It also gives your business more flexibility and scalability.
