Description
Discussion Text
Information system backup is a critical step in maintaining data assurance and availability.
User-level information is data generated by information system and/or application users. In order to assure availability of this data in the event of a system failure, DoD organizations are required to ensure user-generated data is backed up at a defined frequency. This includes data stored on file systems, within databases or within any other storage media.
Applications performing backups must be capable of backing up user-level information per the DoD-defined frequency.
Databases that do not backup information regularly risk the loss of that information in the event of a system failure. Most databases contain functionality to allow regular backups; it is important that this functionality is enabled and configured correctly to prevent data loss.
