I'm sure companies spend a lot of money protecting their secrets. If I were you, encrypted hard drive and safety deposit box. If someone tried to rob the bank, they probably wouldn't know or care what to do with it. But unless you have like a billion dollar corporation as your competitor, I don't think you should be that worried about it.
Except that the more security I have the more time I have to spend on security. If I back up to a USB key, 2 external drives, and swap out a third from a safety deposit box, how much time is that out of my time for building and all the rest I have to do?
Keeping multiple forms of backup already takes time.
Encrypted backups take more time.
Making backups that are kept up to date, more time.
And having off-site backup, even more time.
While I had an office away from home, it was easy. I would just swap out a hard disk and bring it home every so often.
But, I guess a safety deposit box is going to be a necessity... and a lot more time making and maintaining backups.
Or just buy a USB key for every new script, label it and make a deposit.
