Abstract
Providing data protection by triggering backups for data protection based on data loss threshold. A protection policy is configured to protect an asset stored in a storage device in a network. A metric representing an amount of change of data of the asset is defined, along with a threshold value of the metric. The system is periodically monitored to determine if the metric reaches the threshold, and if so, a backup of the asset is triggered under the protection policy. The trigger-based data protection system backs up data on the basis specific data asset change thresholds, rather than on simple time periods or on a continuous basis.
