IT teams and even individual users may delete various documents or emails with large attachments - especially if they appear to be old or no longer relevant. Without an effective backup solution, these steps can be permanent - a real challenge if you need this data in the future.

Most companies create a large number of duplicate files as part of their normal collaboration. However, if they try to delete previous versions or true duplicates, they may inadvertently remove the wrong files.

Although rare, it is possible for disgruntled employees to sabotage or delete important files, and by the time the damage is discovered, it may be too late to recover them.

Cyber criminals are becoming more and more sophisticated and are developing ever more realistic emails with which they can deceive unsuspecting employees. A single click is all it takes to gain access and either exfiltrate data or take it hostage as part of a ransomware attack.

When employees leave, IT administrators should back up the data and reuse the license. However, this does not always happen, which can lead to even more data loss.

Third-party applications can lead to attacks on the unauthorized granting of consent, through which valuable data can be stolen.

Many companies - especially small and medium-sized ones - allow their employees to use their own devices. While this model saves money and makes it easier for employees, it can lead to data problems if the devices are lost or stolen.

Accidents happen. But when employees overwrite important data, these accidents can lead to real problems for the company - especially if it has no way of recovering business-critical data.

While there are ways to back up emails and other data, these processes are usually time-consuming and tedious - not ideal for busy people.
