IT lexicon Infra & Ops Backup

Backup

Infra & Ops På svenska → Updated: 2026-05-23

Copies of data you can restore if the original is destroyed.

The 3-2-1 rule: 3 copies, 2 different media, 1 offsite. Test restoration regularly — backups you've never read are often broken without you knowing. Ransomware: keep a copy offline that can't be encrypted.
