Disaster Recovery
Without a Disaster Recovery Plan, you
are gambling on your organization's survival!
What is Disaster Recovery Planning?
Disaster Recovery Planning confronts the possibility of a
disaster. An interruption could be caused by a winter storm,
the loss of electricity to the general area or the complete
inaccessibility of a facility for an extended period of time.
It might be due to theft or accidental damage to key equipment.
The cause of the disaster is not important. What is critical
is to be able to regain control of the operation. Contingency
preparation is a proactive catastrophe management plan driven
by your business requirements.
What would happen if the lights went out?

If
your server's hard drive failed, how long would it take
to recover? |

Could
your organization survive a small fire near your main
computer? |
 |
Could
a malicious employee bring your organization to its knees? |
 |
Are
you dependent on internet access? If so, what would happen
if you lost access for three days? |
Why is Disaster Recovery Planning Important?
Our government is responsible for responding to most large-scale
disasters. But only you are responsible for the recovery of
your business in the event of a disaster. Your company's recovery
is strictly up to you, and it starts with a disaster recovery
plan.
How would your organization respond to a major fire? What
about the theft of your compter equipment? How might you be
affected by sabotage? Are there other circumstances that would
have a major impact on your organization? Even something as
mundane as the loss of your network server could have a disastrous
effect.
In the event of a disaster, the first few hours are critical.
Your response will determine the success of the recovery and
the long-term success of your organization. A Disaster Recovery
Plan will help you respond to a disaster in an organized,
planned manner.
