#21 – Do I need to backup my data in the cloud?
It’s a common misconception that if you use cloud services like Google Workspace or Office 365, then your data is protected with backups. This is not the case and often these services only include a limited backup (possibly just 1 month) after which the data can’t be recovered.
As such, it’s highly recommended to have a 3rd party backup service of your cloud data to protect you.
