3-2-1 Backup strategy

Secure, simple and collaborative with Crow Backup

In today’s era, where the amount of digital data is constantly growing, the importance of a reliable backup strategy is becoming increasingly important. Data loss can not only cause financial damage, but can also irretrievably destroy personal memories and important information. An effective method to protect yourself from such disasters is the 3-2-1 backup rule. In this article, we will explore the 3-2-1 backup strategy in conjunction with the innovative Crow Backup solution.

Crow Backup: A collaborative solution

Our vision at Crow Backup is to provide an accessible and secure way to archive encrypted copies of data. What characterises our solution?

  1. Intuitive user interface: Our user interface is designed to be simple and user-friendly to ensure a smooth experience.
  2. Strong encryption: The security of your data is our top priority. We use AES-256 encryption to ensure that your information is protected.
  3. Secure storage location: Your data is stored in a secure location – on your friends’ computers. This decentralised approach uses existing storage space without having to rely on external servers.
  4. Network of friends: The storage space for your backup is provided by friends, which is not only free, but also creates a network of trust.

Backup at friends

The idea of backing up your data on your friends’ computers may seem unconventional, but it has considerable advantages:

  1. Free storage space: The storage space for your backup is free of charge as it is provided by friends.
  2. Trusted place: Your data is in a place you can trust – in your friends’ network.
  3. Local recovery: Your data can be conveniently restored via the local network, saving time and bandwidth.

The 3-2-1 backup rule in context

The 3-2-1 backup rule is a proven method to ensure that your data is optimally protected. Here is a compact summary:

  • 3: Three copies of your data – the original and two backup copies.
  • 2: Use of two different media types – for example, local hard drives and cloud storage.
  • 1: A copy outside the current location – in our case, on the computers of your friends.

Implementing the 3-2-1 rule with Crow Backup enables efficient data backup. In addition to your main device, you can use cloud storage and external hard drives, while your friends provide a secure external storage location.

Why the 3-2-1 backup rule is crucial

The importance of regular data backups is emphasised by alarming statistics. In 2019 alone, data loss in German companies resulted in damage totalling over 100 billion euros. Over 60 per cent of private users have also been affected by data loss.

The 3-2-1 backup rule provides robust protection against data loss by ensuring redundancy, different storage media and an external copy. With Crow Backup, this rule is not only fulfilled, but also optimised through a collaborative and decentralised backup environment.

In a world where data is priceless, implementing an effective backup strategy such as the 3-2-1 rule is critical. Crow Backup offers an innovative and trusted solution based on collaboration and security. Harness the power of community to protect your digital treasures – one, two, three copies, securely and off-site.
