World Backup Day is Monday, March 31, and the Postal Service is reminding employees and contractors of the importance of backing up and saving digital data.
Data can be backed up and saved in multiple places, such as USPS-approved external hard drives or other removable media, and cloud storage.
Hard drive failures, ransomware attacks or theft of devices can result in data loss. Devices can be replaced, but data may be lost forever.
Employees and contractors should back up USPS data to approved USB drives and secure file locations.
More information can be found on the World Backup Day website. Additional information is available on the CyberSafe Blue and LiteBlue pages.
