About Duplicati
Protecting Your Digital Life from Catastrophic Data Loss
Have you ever stopped to think about what would happen if your computer crashed, or your house was hit by a hurricane, and all your precious files were destroyed? It's a morbid question, perhaps, but one that many of us have grappled with at some point. The good news is that with the rise of cloud storage and backup software, it's easier than ever to safeguard your digital life against such disasters.
The Problem: Data Loss Due to Catastrophic Events
Catastrophic events like hardware failure, ransomware attacks, or natural disasters can be devastating for individuals and businesses alike. Losing access to important files, documents, and data can not only be frustrating but also have serious financial and reputational consequences. For instance, a business that relies on its customer database may struggle to recover from a cyberattack that wipes out all its user information.
