World Backup Day

March 31st is World Backup Day! An annual campaign to raise awareness about data safety and backup strategies worldwide.

Don’t be an April Fool—take a few minutes to protect your precious files before it’s too late.

The Risk of Traditional Backups

Most people who backup their data simply copy it to an external drive or upload it to Google Drive. While this is better than nothing, a single copy in a single place remains vulnerable.

If your external drive fails, or if your Google account gets locked, you still lose your data.

A Better Way with YourKeep

This World Backup Day, level up your backups:

  • Zero single points of failure: Split your backup into fragments and place them across independent services (e.g. Google Drive, Dropbox, a physical USB drive).
  • Control your keys: Keep your encryption keys entirely offline on your device.

Celebrate World Backup Day by creating your recovery identity!
