Advice:
In order to comply with several new laws, you need to have a
data protection plan in place and operational. Windows does provide a
"Restore" feature though is limited in disk space allocation and the
control of regular restore points.
A Continuous Data Protection (CDP) program puts you in charge
of when, where and what data is shielded. It does consume disk space
based
on your settings and some processing power. In
light of the tangible benefits, this is a minor consideration for vital
files & to prove compliance.
If you do use data destruction applications, please be aware
copies of a deleted file(s) will be recoverable depending
the settings and timing.
CDP
With Tivoli Continuous Data Protection for Files, you help
optimize recovery times for file servers and recovery point objectives
(RPO). Typically, a file server is backed up once a night. The degree
of difference between the recoverable data and the latest version of
the file can be significant- if many changes are made between backups.
(This degree of difference is known as the RPO.)
When
important files are changed, CDP will
make an immediate
local copy of the file. You are protected
even if you are not on a network at the time. The application can
be set to schedule another copy to go to some off-machine target, such
as
an
USB disk,
a file server
/ NAS,
an
internet provider, etc.
