A snapshot allows you to create a secure and efficient restore point, enabling you to easily undo any modifications made to your disk at a specific moment in time. However, it is important to note that a snapshot is not a substitute for a backup, and both should be utilized in conjunction to ensure comprehensive data protection for your instance.
