The problem

A local backup can be lost with the primary site through theft, fire or other physical events.

Recommended approach

Keep at least one recovery copy separated from the primary location when the business impact justifies it.

Step-by-step checklist

  1. Identify critical data.
  2. Define retention.
  3. Select secure offsite storage.
  4. Encrypt data in transit and at rest where supported.
  5. Test offsite restore.
