In this Voice of Business conversation on 4RO, Luke is joined by Brad Johnson from My Local IT Guy, to talk about a topic many businesses assume is sorted — until it isn’t.
The discussion covers:
- Why many businesses think their data is backed up, but haven’t checked
- The difference between backing up data and being able to restore it
- Why backups should be tested, not just assumed to be working
- The importance of having a plan in place before something goes wrong
- A plain-English explanation of the 3-2-1 backup strategy
- Common misunderstandings around cloud storage and OneDrive
- Why tools like OneDrive are best treated as sync and collaboration tools, not backups
- The value of keeping at least one separate, off-site copy of business data
- Simple questions business owners can ask their IT provider to reduce risk
