how to protect your data while working from home.

Take these essential steps to protect your data while working from home:

1. Backup

Backing up your data is the most important thing you need to do. Make sure it becomes your routine, so that you always have an up-to-date version of your data.

2. Check your backup
Your backup may fail due to various reasons, from interruptions during the backup process to corrupt files, to a full or broken backup drive. 
Therefore, always check the data to ensure the last backup was made correctly. 

3. Create a strong password
Make sure you have password protection and don’t have the same password for all devices.
Strong passwords can be hard to remember, so it could be helpful to use a password manager with encrypted password protection.

4. Update virus protection
You don't want your computer to be infected with a virus or malware. For that reason, regularly update your virus protection software for all devices you use when working from home.

Despite everything, human error is still the top cause of data loss.
