No matter what your backup process is there is a risk of that data being stolen and security needs to be a consideration. In my ITBASE strategy for company technology (S stands for Security), so it is part of the equation to having a solid technical environment to grow and maintain a business. I realize that offsite backup isn't for everyone and some people just may not be comfortable with it.

Yes, backup software allows you to use rulesets to discover important data to backup regardless of where you decide to place it. You can enable default rulesets or have a computer professional write additional rules as they apply to your business.

Are there any security risks associated with the process? Also, can the backup process be automated to search for new/updated files in specific folders?
