Data Loss Disasters in the Cloud

Let’s review the most common causes of data loss in the cloud and data loss protection tools. Well, we are not paranoiacs. Sometimes even to the contrary: when we lose important files we would really like if there was a copy of it somewhere.

  1. User error
    Cloud services provide an ability to delete users’ data. Usually, it’s an accidental deletion. Some users blame themselves, others blame unfriendly interface. “I see a list of everything I wrote in Google Docs, but can never see the actual content again,” describes his horrible experience Google user. Do you also tap the “Delete” button by mistake sometimes? Good reason to have a backup.Cloud services like Google has its own internal backup solutions. For some reasons they are not available for the end users. Spinbackup is a great tool that makes your Google experience better and more secure.

If your job is important, you might become a victim of hackers. Or evil prankers. Just imagine the situation: someone sees you typing your password, and later logs into your account just to delete everything you have. Of course, you will change your password after that. But you will never get back data that you’ve lost. Well, if you don’t have a backup, it’s a real disaster. Spinbackup solves it with a click.

Google itself keeps multiple backup copies of users’ emails  so that they can recover messages and restore accounts in case of errors or system failure. But having a copy of a deleted email doesn’t mean it can be easily recovered. If someone deleted your emails or files accidentally or on purpose, Google Inc. might not restore it for you. This is why Spinbackup is here.
