Did you know that if your computer crashes or files are accidentally deleted, they may be lost forever—especially if your device is encrypted? Even on non-encrypted computers, data loss due to hardware failure, theft, or malware can be a major setback. That’s why it’s essential to back up your important documents to OneDrive.

With OneDrive, your files are automatically stored in the cloud, keeping them safe and accessible from any device. Plus, it integrates seamlessly with your university account, making backups effortless. University employees can store up to 1TB of files in OneDrive, ensuring plenty of space for important documents. Don’t risk losing your work—take a few minutes to ensure your files are backed up today!
