Backup audit: What is a backup audit and why do we need them?

General News

Summary

All areas of activity can be severely compromised without the ability to roll back to previous versions of files, directories, servers and so on. That can include mission critical operations, vital data in business terms, and that for which regulatory compliance is an important concern. After all, the key reason for the audit is to identify weaknesses, inefficiencies and possible points of failure in the backup and data protection regime. This would also include setting out a schedule for regular reviews and updates to procedure, as well as identifying any triggers that can bring this about, such as changes to infrastructure. From the storage big boys there is Data Protection Advisor, which appears to be an extant product from Dell EMC and claims cloud compatibility.
