The possible modes of data loss and the resolutions.

Data loss is a real threat to every business. The critical business data and confidential customer data is a prominent asset to every business. Every business owners are often worried a lot about data loss. Because data loss has the potential to throw out a business from the market forever. Here, we have identified the foremost factors causing data loss.


Human Caused Error

Nothing is predictable in this nature, so the chances of human causeerrors are high as if unintentional datadeletion, modification, and overwrites – has become much more prevalent inbusiness. And the main reason for this is nothingbut the unskilled management of virtualization technology. Although virtualizationand cloud technology have been enhanced businesses and enterprises by far,humans are still steering its operations.

The intricacy of these structures
often presents a learning curve that can comprise quite a bit of trial and
error. For example, a support engineer may by chance delete the backup when
they forget to power off the replication software before formatting data packs
on the main website. They may be sure that they won’t repeat it but “prevention
is better than cure.”

Data File Corruption

 During writing,
reading, storage, transmission, and
processing there is chances of unintended changes – making the data within the
file inaccessible. Then, software failure is a leading cause of data loss and
is typically the result of bugs in the code. And the intrusion of viruses and malware delete the data files, and thereby harddrive partition become damaged.

Hardware Failure

Electronic equipment is not at all evergreen products. Over time, it will get damaged. Similarly, hard drives are all prey to irreversible hard-disk failure. Viruses and hackers can also lock down a hard drive by injecting unerasable malicious code and massive files through open, insecure ports. If these nasty programs cannot be erased, the total hard drive may have to be reformatted. Then, we will miss our data forever.

Unfortunate Events

 The nature of our nature is incalculable. The disastrous events such as fire, flooding, lightning and power failure is always a concern for both the civilians and business sectors. Such events can wipe out data in no time. Theft is also a challenging data loss risk that companies must cautious about. Many people are doing daily business on their mobile machines. They are also roaming around portable media such as storage devices, USB sticks and CDs. Theft of any of these devices can cause big trouble as well.

Data loss is as perilous and equally disastrous for business entities. So identifying the key points that cripple us down and taking adequate measure to ensure its security will enlight us more.
