Data stored on the computer's hard disk or memory will not be backed up by IT Services. Instead, the responsibility for backups lies solely with the owner of the computer, unlike with network disks. For this reason, data should not be stored or kept solely in the local memory of the computer. If data is lost from the device, it cannot be recovered without a backup. The hard disk is suitable for temporarily storing sensitive information, such as recording an interview on Zoom. After temporary storage, it's recommended to move the data to your personal home drive or another platform that allows for secure storage of sensitive data.
