All organizations have the requirement of backing up their data. This can be a daunting, tedious and time consuming task. Even if the mechanism for backing up files is in place, restoration of backed up data is another issue. Rarely do organizations test their back-up systems by restoring data from them. Often, organizations find their back-ups corrupted and useable. Some small organizations don't even back-up the majority of their systems. Although some HomeNet members may have an effective system for back-up, this service would be available as another option should they wish to utilize it.

Restoration of files is equally simple.
