Businesses large and have one thing in common: They must make sure their data is protected and available. These 10 applications show how it can be done.

Taking Care Of Business Data
Data, whether it’s internal to the owner or external to customers and suppliers, is the lifeblood of business. As such, protecting that data, whether it‘s on-premises or in the cloud, requires technology that can back up the data, restore it, archive it, protect it against both willful attacks or accidents, and ensure anything done with or to the data is in compliance with a business’ regulatory requirements.
