backup media  

Definition

  • The purpose of backup media is to store information for future restoration and use, much like a spare tire is a backup for a tire gone flat. Backup media can take many forms, but the form used needs to be suitable for the restoration process and the restoration environment. [Source: Encyclopedia of Crisis Management; Backup Media]
