These days, pictures, music, schoolwork, business documents and all kinds of personal information are stored digitally. As the uses of computers, tablets, and smart phones expand, the loss of data due to user error, computer malfunctions, or deliberate theft has become a bigger problem than ever before. This title explores what is meant by bit rot and how it can affect users of technology. It also verses readers on the best ways to protect and store their data. Computer files, e-books, mp3s and digital photographs aren't going away any time soon. This guide helps reader keep what matters to them safe and secure.
