    FAQ about Backup

    How does a backup work?

    When you need to back up, the way it works in practice is that you make a copy of a file. That copy is then put somewhere safe - it can either be on a USB stick, an external hard drive or somewhere remote such as online backup or your own server. Backing up your data used to be a lengthy and sometimes cumbersome process. Today, conditions are somewhat different. Better technology and faster speeds make it much easier to back up your files online. The transfer speed and indexing of files to be backed up is simply much sharper and better. At the same time, online backup allows you to restore files from anywhere there's internet. This makes it even easier to access your files quickly, and just when you need them. Backup today is automatic and 100-fold faster than in the past. Just 5 years ago you had to use a backup program to back up a computer, and here the fastest and safest way was to do it manually with an external hard drive. It was time-consuming and not 100% safe - understood in the sense that a regular external hard drive, despite its robustness, is still mechanical and can therefore fail. Today, an automatic backup is the backup that works best. You don't have to worry about your files being backed up. And when the automatic backup is in the cloud, you're covered.

    What can I back up?

    You can back up almost any digital file you have on your computer. Image files, video files, psd files, documents, spreadsheets, etc. The list is long, but the most important thing to know is that you can back up the files that matter to you. The photo album from the summer holidays, the important documents and the spreadsheets with accounts or study assignments. Back up your Desktop - perhaps the most important folder for many? Then you can be sure that when you clean up your desktop, you'll be able to restore a deleted file later if it gets lost in the shuffle.

    What is the best method?

    A backup must be secure. Very secure. In fact, it needs to be as secure as possible, with the best measures available, if you want to feel that the files you have backed up are protected in the best possible way. You don't get that kind of security when you back up to an external hard drive or a USB stick. Nor do you get it by having your backup on a NAS in your home, or by having a home server. Of course you need an internet connection to access your backup, but the internet is now such an integral part of our lives that this is not a problem. If your backup is in the cloud, your files are always safe and available when you need them.

    How many backups should you have?

    It's always good to play on several horses when it comes to securing your files. In addition to having the files themselves on your computer, you also need to have them somewhere else and depending on how much work you want to put into it, it's preferable to have a copy in at least 3 different places.

    What about security?

    There are many different levels of security when it comes to securing your files and data. However, the principle of taking a copy of your data and putting it somewhere other than your computer is general to most kinds of backups. It is the medium and location, as well as physical and digital security measures, of the copied data that determine how securely it is stored. The location refers to media or places that can store digital files such as an external hard drive, a USB stick, a CD, a server or similar. The most common type of backup has been to external hard drives and removable media for many years. However, with the spread of high-speed internet such as fibre broadband and wired internet technologies, backing up through online backup has become the preferred choice. It is the safest option. Besides the fact that cloud backup offers data storage in specially designed building facilities, the security of the transfer itself is also highly impenetrable. That is, the connection between, say, a computer and a website or online backup service is encrypted. The type of encryption often used for particularly secure connections is 256-bit AES and SSL encryption. With this encryption, it is virtually impossible for outsiders to see what is being transmitted. The same kind of encryption is used in the military and to protect the most sensitive information in the world. But does it matter where the online backup is stored? No - we explain more about that below.

    Can a backup be hacked?

    A backup on an external hard drive, for example, is vulnerable to hacker attacks if it is connected to your computer. If your computer is infected with a virus, it can gain access to your files. However, files on your hard drive can be encrypted, but if the files are not stored elsewhere, as with an online backup, the overall security is still not great. A backup in a modern data centre is highly secure against hacker attacks. Unfortunately, no computer system is completely secure against attack. That said, one of the most important defences against being hacked is having strong passwords for the accounts you use online. A strong password can be a great safeguard if a computer falls into the wrong hands or if your computer is attacked by a hacker.

    Where is a backup placed?

    In general, there are two places where a backup can be located. Either it is local within the house walls and resides on an external hard drive or other removable media - or it is located outside the house. In the latter case, it will be located on a remote server in one or more specially designed buildings for storing digital data.

    What does backup mean?

    Backing up means having a copy of files, as a precaution in case the original files are lost. You have, so to speak, a clone of what you want backed up - for example, a document, a digital image or a video. This is also called 'backup', which is an English term that has also become very popular here. It is especially in the digital world and on our computers and smartphones that we are anxious about what happens to our data and files if the electronics fail. You may have experienced your computer crashing or your phone going in the washing machine. Digital media are incredibly powerful and flexible on the one hand - but also very vulnerable on the other. That's why a backup is something that will benefit the vast majority of people. With backup, data and files can be restored from the copy, which is stored in a safe place.

    Is there a difference between backup and backup?

    No, a backup and a backup are the same. 'Sikkerhedskopi' is just the Danish term for 'backup'.

    Is backup easy to get started?

    Today, backing up is incredibly easy to get started. If you can write in a word processor like Word, you can also back up. Online backup requires no special computer skills other than a normal feel for using a computer program. It's straightforward for virtually any computer user. In the vast majority of cases with modern backup (in the form of online backup), you install a new program on your computer. This program allows you to transfer and synchronize folders and files on your computer, which you choose, to the cloud. It also lets you decide which folders should always be monitored and automatically back up your files. This way, when you make changes to a file or folder, your files are always up to date in the cloud. For examples of how to get started with backups, watch Onlime's video guides to backups.
