%X Modern organizations from different sizes (Small, , Medium and Large) consider information asone of the most important of their assets that need to be secured against increasing number ofthreats. The importance of the information comes from its impacts on the main tasks performedby the organization. The evolution of Information Technology and Information Systems ischanging permanently the characteristics and the components of such systems and the waysneeded to protect them against any security risk.Periodic data backup is a system administration task that has changed as new technologies havealtered the fundamental structure of networks. These changes encourage rethinking of modernbackup strategies and techniques. In addition, standard backup programs and specialized toolsare often needed.This paper provides an overview of issues to be considered for a long term, stable and securebackup system. A new approach (Hardware) called Black Box backup system is proposed basedon current risk management plans and procedures used mainly in the aerospace industry.
