Its the start of the first working week of a new year, and everyone is getting back into the swing of things after the Christmas break. So instead of getting right back into your routine take a little bit of time to check that your backups are working well. I’ll admit this is a bit of a boring an onerous job but it is a very important one.

There is nothing worse than suffering a disaster, running to a backup and finding out that what you need is not there.

The trouble is that very few people ever check their backups. Backups are set, and they run and they run and they run.

You thing in fact you are sure what is being backed up.

However you don’t know for sure unless you regularly check your backups.

So do yourself a  favour. Before this years work really builds up – check your backup. Hopefully all will be well, but if it is not – well at least you can now save yourself.

If you happen to be one of the many who never backup, make your first job creating that backup.
