Data loss can happen in many ways and at any time. It is estimated that the cost of IT system downtime can be as much as $84,000 to $108,000 for every hour, so the cost of even one day of lost business can be devastating, particularly in today's economy. (Source: Gartner, IDC, Forrester, Yankee Group).
Good records management includes plans for both back up and disaster recovery. This includes regularly backing up and archiving data in the event of natural disasters, flooding, fires, etc., so they can be quickly accessed to restore data and get your business moving as quickly as possible.
An effective disaster recovery plan is a comprehensive outline of actions that are required prior to and following a disaster. The plan should be documented thoroughly as well as tested to ensure there is a continuity of operations and the availability of mission-critical resources should a disaster occur.
Key Steps of an Effective Disaster Recovery Plan include:
-
Defining the Business Requirements
-
Determining what information is critical to protect and recover in the event of a disaster
-
Choosing the right tools and resources to ensure proper backup
-
Monitor and Test to determine effectiveness
Preparedness is the key to a successful plan, and Netfast Technology Solutions can help your business define a comprehensive Backup and Disaster Recovery Plan that will provide you piece of mind should an unexpected disaster occur.
