Snapshots are an advanced backup method and are normally reserved for high-end business NAS. QNAP provides snapshots as standard for all NAS – including the TS-216G. Snapshots work by recording the current state of the system, allowing it to be restored back this state at any time - greatly helping in mitigating the threat of ransomware.
Always remember to back up! You should routinely (or automatically) back up files and data from your computer to your TS-216G.

The TS-216G provides powerful security measures including firewall, VPN, Security Center, and more to help keep your data and NAS system safe and sound.
