Backups should be stored in multiple locations to ensure data safety. Options include:
- Local Storage: On-site servers or external hard drives. While convenient, these are vulnerable to local disasters. - Cloud Storage: Offers flexibility and scalability, and is often more secure against physical damages. - Off-site Storage: Physical copies stored in a different geographic location. This provides an additional layer of protection.
Using a combination of these methods can provide a robust backup strategy.
