I know what you download )

 I Know What You Download' has been tracking BitTorrent users for years. It has a database of more than nine million torrents and detects more than 100 million instances of sharing every day. It is not a pirate site, it's a service that tracks BitTorrent users. Unfortunately, fellow piracy tracking companies - including some of the most prominent in the world - have no ability to tell the difference.

I use this site to make sure no one use torrents in organization.

 It is 100% accurate for me 

Users with dynamic IP addresses researching themselves may be presented with false alarms, but as a broad research tool operating in an undeserved niche, the service works as advertised.

Golden rule for sys admins- 1

 Backup everything and make sure to regularly validate those backups.


Backing up your data is absolutely crucial in case anything goes wrong. It's like having a safety net to fall back on if something unexpected happens. So, make it a habit to back up all your important files, configurations, and databases regularly.


Why it matters:

  1. Protects against data loss: Hardware failure, ransomware, or human error won’t destroy your data.

  2. Ensures business continuity: Quick recovery keeps operations running smoothly.

  3. Reduces risk: Validating backups ensures they are complete and usable.

  4. Complies with regulations: Many industries require reliable backup procedures.

Best Practices:

  • Back up all critical data and system configurations, not just files.

  • Store backups offsite or in the cloud in addition to local copies.

  • Schedule regular automated backups to reduce human error.

  • Test restores regularly to confirm backups are reliable.

  • Keep a backup retention policy to manage storage and versioning.
