Backup '3-2-1 rule', is weekly enough

Thanks a lot I'll try it today.

it's rare to find an explanation this clear.

Let me summarize what's been said so far. Start with a small trial; don't commit to everything at once.

the most overlooked point aout backup strategy is this: The answer varies greatly by industry; there is no one-size-fits-all rule.

of couurse it varies if your situation is different.

youre right, Ive been down that road too. when you try to change everything at once nothing settles.

Here's how it went for us. Taking measures without an inventory leaves doors you haven't seen open.

If you have questions, write them; I'll answer as best I can.

We got stuck at the same point for a while. The answer varies greatly by industry; there is no one-size-fits-all rule.

Exactly like that. anyway the real issue isn't the number but what it's based on.

Good luck with that.

don't miss this: Forgotten test environments are more often the entry point than live systems.

if 2FA is on, a stoln password alone is useless then proven by experience.

Thanks that was the answer I was looking for.

Exactly, and not many people know this. The harder it is to reverse a decision, the slower you should make it.

Solutions that work at a small scale collapse when you grow; I learned this late. Proven by experience.

I agree and I'd like to emphasize that. Forgotten test environments are more often the entry point than live systems.

My perspective changed after experiencing that. Start with a small trial; don't commit to everything at once.

Just leaving this note, it might be useful.

Let me share what happened to me; it might be useful. Your time to detect an issue directly determines its cost.

I'm also curious if anyone does it differently.

There are three things to check when doing this. Having backups accessible on the same network and with the same identity makes them part of the target.

If permission and scope aren't in writing, don't start that test. Proven by experience.

I agree.

I have a question. When making a decision, first look at what data you have on hand.

Just because everyone does it doesn't mean it's right. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Correct.
