Belgian companies face the challenge of data loss
In an increasingly digital world, data is a valuable asset for all businesses. Unfortunately, cyber-attacks, human error and hardware failure can lead to irreparable losses. The question is no longer "if"but "when" a company is faced with an incident affecting its data.
Implementing a robust backup solution is not just a preventive measure; it's a guarantee of continuity and longevity. This article explores the importance of backup and why Belgian companies need to invest in modern solutions tailored to their needs.
The consequences of not having a backup solution

- One study shows that data loss can cost SMEs up to several thousand euros, not counting business interruptions.
