Reason of Data Loss: Software Corruption
Next in the row is software corruption or program malfunction. Software corruption accounts for almost 14% of all data losses.
Software malfunction occurs due to corruption by virulent software, configuration complexity, or improper backups.
When you notice an error message stating that data is inaccessible or corrupted, system messages relating to memory errors, or you observe that the software application you are trying to load on the computer, wouldn’t do that anyways, then that could be an alarm that data loss has occurred.
Corruption caused by diagnostic or repair tools:
Failed backups: You may feel secure that you back up your data regularly. But what when you find it useless in that crucial moment when you need to restore from them. The backup technologies and practices have failed to a large extent to protect data. They fail because they rely on the combined efforts of technology and humans for success. The backup media (tapes, cartridges, or tape drives) totally depends on mechanical perfection and hence they do not work properly. Backup software may become corrupted and you may accidentally backup the corrupted information.
Faulty software & Configuration Complexity:
Agreed that you could not stop that wicked thing to have swept away all the information you have been saving for future reference. However, what you can do is follow some preventive measures, such as:
• Make sure that you back up the data on a regular basis, so that when the data gets corrupted due to any reason, you are still safe and so is your customer’s database. Not only the backup would I suggest but the restore capabilities because since, you have the backup done would not solve the purpose, unless it restores the same.
• You know that you are storing information you would need in the future but are you aware that you are moving it to the right place (i.e. the place where you want it to be).
• You might have purchased those copies of a program for a lesser price but isn’t your data more valuable? I am sure it is. Hence, it is recommended not to use the pirated copies of a program otherwise, it may cause the software to malfunction leading to data loss.
• When you want to run multiple programs at one time, keep a check on the amount of the memory installed. Is that much memory enough for you otherwise it may get stuck or would shut down and finally result in data loss.
• If you are not using a program for its intended purpose, it may become corrupted and stops functioning properly. So, it is suggested to use a program for its intended purpose.
• Keep in mind that you are using diagnostic utilities with caution.
