Craig Ball, a U.S. lawyer, computer forensic examiner, law professor and noted authority on electronic evidence, recently rewrote his primer on backup systems, focused specifically on lawyers and law firms. In his blog post, Luddite Lawyer’s Guide to Computer Backup Systems Ball notes that although there has long been a call for lawyers to learn more about how information technologies work, that call has largely remained unanswered. His focus in this primer is on understanding backup technology for purposes of electronic discovery, but the information he provides is also important to lawyers setting up their own office backup systems. Given the prevalence of ransomware targeting law firms, having a reliable and accessible backup system has become more important than ever.
