Availability
Data availability refers to the ability of authorized users to access and retrieve the data they need, when they need it. Ensuring data availability is important for maintaining the smooth operation of an organization and making sure that critical information is not lost or inaccessible.
This can be achieved through various means such as maintaining multiple copies of data in different locations, implementing disaster recovery plans, and utilizing cloud-based storage solutions. Data availability is one of the key components of a robust data management strategy and should be considered in conjunction with data security and integrity.
