There are couple of ways to do it: you can do Content Store database backup (you will need to get with your DBA on that). Also, you can do full public content export out of Cognos Connection and store big zipped file somewhere on network or directly on your Cognos server. You can even schedule it to do this on regular (weekly, by-weekly, monthly, etc.) bases. You can find help on how to to do export in Cognos Administration Guide.
Keep in mind, that in both of those methods you will have to restore completed system and not a single object at the time. As alternative, you may need to build to another Cognos system just for that purpose if you want to do single object import.
Hope that helps... ;)

If you're talking about database backup, then it depends on database type. But with any types, look for DBA around you, ask them, they would know that. In my company (and I'm pretty sure in many others) we (Cognos admins/developers) don't have an access to DB to do full backup that you needed there.
