Disaster Recovery
If you own a business and deal with data, you know that disaster can strike at any time. If your company deals with a lot of data, you understand that such catastrophes can spell the end of your profitability and viability. All of this can be avoided if you take steps to develop contingency plans and ensure that you are backed up in the event that disaster does strike your physical location.

It should be your goal to be the destination for customers and clients who want to see their information protected and backed up under any circumstances. We help to build your business’ value proposition to your customers and your clients.
Office for Business Continuity
Another aspect of the disaster plan includes that if your business has multiple sites of work areas or staff located elsewhere, then you will have to think about where to redirect those members and how to get your equipment back up and running over there. Of course, office or production space is only part of the problem. You must make sure your teams have the right equipment to work with. This might mean sourcing new PCs; it might mean allowing some staff to work from home. In the latter instance, you need to make sure they have equipment and connectivity that’s up to the job. If you allow them to use personal equipment for business use, it’s important that there’s adequate security in place.
There are other areas of knowledge that you will need to know to make your disaster plan a great and efficient one.
- Recovery Point Objective (RPO) – RPO is measured in time and then dictates disaster recovery procedures. For example, if the RPO is set to 30 minutes, then a backup of the system is required to be done every 30 minutes.
- Recovery Time Objective (RTO) – RTO designates the amount of “real time” that can pass before the disruption begins to seriously and unacceptably impede the flow of normal business operations.
IT disasters are real and can happen often even when we are not expecting them. Make sure you have your plan and know what areas need to be covered and updated periodically to prevent a major downtime in your business.
