A CLOSER LOOK
About website backups.
Why keeping a backup matters +
Virtually every hosting provider recommends or requires in its terms of service that hosted sites prepare for unintentional change or loss. Yet four out of five site owners don’t maintain a complete, up-to-date backup. As a result, remediation of a compromised site is usually difficult and expensive.
Websguard makes website backup simple, easy to use, and easy to understand. Below is an example of what your dashboard could look like if you had multiple backups already in our system. We clearly display for you all of the backups we’ve ever taken of your site, including what files changed, and include options on how to restore.
Your “last known good” version +
Websguard is a ready-made server that can keep track of all changes made to your web site. In conventional “Backup Mode”, Websguard can—daily, weekly, or monthly—capture your existing live site, storing each sweep as a different version.
Below is a screenshot of what a detailed backup version looks like. Not only do we tell you how many files were added, changed, or deleted, but we also tell you what files, and when it occurred.
