NASSAU, BAHAMAS – While many stock up on food and water, prepare hurricane shutters, and secure their homes, some often forget another important component for hurricane-proofing their life. In the event of a storm, it’s important to back up essential information into the cloud.

I.T. help desk technician at Cable Bahamas, Torian Neymour, advises backing up files that include emergency contacts and important documents such as passports. This ensures that essential items are preserved even if physical copies are lost or damaged.

For business owners with offices filled with computers, Neymour recommends ensuring all data is backed up to prevent data loss during a hurricane. After the storm, it’s essential to ensure all equipment is properly dried out before use.
