Some interesting observations by Bruce Schneier, one of the foremost security/cryptography experts around. This is from his current newsletter.

Not only do we have to worry about whether "we're logged on", but we need to think about whether we're "backed up".

Comments, thoughts, John?

Think to yourself for a moment right now.

Could you, right now. Not 5 minutes from now. Not if you take care of a small something, but RIGHT NOW.

Could you pull out your harddrive, put a brand new one in, reinstall the operating system from recovery CD/DVDs, then get back to where you need to be?

If you could not do that right now, you need better backups.
