A full backup copies all the files on the system - the system files, the software files and the data files regardless of whether it has been altered or not and clears any archive bits that were turned on upon completion of the procedure. An incremental backup is a backup of every file on a files system which has changed, or more particularly, that still has an archive bit set on the file since the last backup. A differential backup is a backup of every file on a file system which has changed since the last full backup.

Even though these types of backup strategies implemented in a range of forms have been the standard for many years, variations are now in place. In several cases data backup strategies can consist of what is called 'continuous data protection (CDP)' (Jacobi, 2006).
With this technology, data can in some cases be backed up as it is changed.

A backup and recovery strategy must constantly consist of periodic restoration checks to be certain that data can actually be retrieved in the event of an emergency. A backup that cannot be restored is just the same as having no backup at all.
