46 percent of consumers do not know what ransomware is, but 61 percent of businesses are concerned or highly concerned about ransomware. Alternately, businesses ranked “safety” (reliable backups that keep all data complete and recovery-ready) as their most important backup feature, which would be a result of the many high profile data breaches and ransomware attacks in recent years. However, there was an unfortunate low awareness of cyberthreats. The majority of consumers ranked “accessibility” (rapid access to backups that are affordable and easy-to-use) as their top priority in a backup solution. To start off, and to get a better understanding what personal users and professionals most value in a backup, Acronis asked their respondents which of the five vectors of cyber protection– safety, accessibility, privacy, authenticity, and security- was most important to their goals. Surprisingly or not, the discoveries of this year’s World Backup Day Survey revealed notable contradictions between consumer beliefs and practical choices, as well as an interesting contrast between the value people and businesses place on their data’s value and the steps they take to protect it. 2019 was the first year they polled business professionals regarding their knowledge and data protection habits as well.
