Versioning
Versioning keeps earlier states of a file so that changes are traceable and older versions can be restored.
What is versioning?
Versioning (version control) stores successive states of a file. This makes it possible to trace who changed what and when, and to restore an earlier state if needed.
Why does versioning matter?
It protects against accidental overwriting or deletion, makes collaboration easier and creates traceability, an important aspect for compliance and audits.
Versioning and restore
Beyond the history itself, a good solution allows individual versions to be restored on demand, for example after a mistake or a ransomware incident.
How SecureCloud implements versioning
SecureCloud keeps a version history for files and documents and allows earlier states to be restored. Combined with an audit log, granular rights and hosting in Germany, every change stays traceable.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between versioning and backup?
A backup secures data as a whole for recovery after loss. Versioning keeps individual earlier states of a file and allows targeted rollback.
Can you restore old versions?
Yes. With SecureCloud, earlier versions of a file can be restored on demand.
Does versioning help against ransomware?
It helps, because earlier states can be restored after an incident. However, it does not replace a full backup concept.
