From the Paper:

"Database maintenance should include daily remote backup to maintain safe data in case of emergencies. There are many companies that provide remote backup services. Data transfer is usually done after hours through broadband internet connections. This will provide redundancy and remote copies if the main database is ever destroyed or compromised by ill intentioned hackers."
