Ensure Backup Automatically is Enabled If Time Machine Is Enabled

MoyenneNiveau 2Automatiséemacos

Description

Backup solutions are only effective if the backups run on a regular basis. The time to check for backups is before the hard drive fails or the computer goes missing. In order to simplify the user experience so that backups are more likely to occur, Time Machine should be on and set to Back Up Automatically whenever the target volume is available. Audit: Passes when Time Machine is not configured (preference not set) or AutoBackup is enabled.
