This paper discusses the growing awareness within the small and medium-sized business (SMB) community that business data, the most valuable of company assets, is at risk and must be better protected. Concepts such as Recovery Time and Recovery Point objectives, common in the large enterprise, are gaining greater awareness as ways to measure and develop data asset protection strategies. Addressing the need for foolproof data protection and immediate recovery from disasters can be daunting, but fortunately, online backup is solving the problem for a growing number of businesses.
