Full backup
A full backup is a total copy of your organization's entire data assets which contain all information about them backed up into a single version.
The advantages of full backup are pretty clear - it comprehensively protects all company data and doesn't put you at risk of data loss. That is why it is essential to have all data entirely backed up, accessible, and recoverable. When it comes to recovery from that type of backup, it’s really simple - all you need to do is recover the chosen version, and the user has access to that data.
However, full backups take massive storage space and many labor hours to create. IT workload on the network interferes with routine infrastructure operations, and full backups consume extensive backup repository storage space. Thus it should be done at greater time intervals (i.e. once a month).
