I don't see how that can be the biggest lesson. Someone at the service provider bypassed their own protocols in order to hand control of the system over to an unauthorized user. Even with local backups he would have needed to restore the servers because Namecheap royally screwed up.
Yes, you should always have more backups than you need. But wouldn't you be moving to a different provider after something like this anyway?
- tyingq 11y agoYes, I would move. Impossible to do without the data, which is why it was the biggest takeaway to me.
- thomnottom 11y agoUnderstood. I guess my point is that almost every data story can end with "should have had better backups" as the lesson.
