Just saw earlier today, amidst a rain downpour in Sydney, a courier from a well known tape media offsite storage firm drop his case of tapes on the foot path, hurriedly shove them back in the case and pop them in the truck!!
Hope that organisation has a reliable 2nd tier backup.

Backup or Archive? An age old question - after almost 60 years of data
storage and backup on electro-magnetic media, people are still confused
as to what a "Backup" is and what an "Archive" is. See Tim's blog post explaining the difference. 
Do you "Splunk" ?? It's not a rude question, but it could lead you to some empowering insights into what's happening out there in your multi-vendor, multi-faceted IT infrastructure. Data Engines have developed a set of field tested, vendor backed data-at-rest encryption solutions that can help organisations mitigate data security risks for removable storage media like tape. Ask us how to ensure your primary data storage or backup data is safely encrypted, but most importantly, how you can insure full recovery in the future.
