Disaster Recovery

If a disaster were to strike your business could you maintain essential operations during the emergency and fully recover afterwards?

The commonest threat to a business is data loss, but there are many other potential threats such as sudden loss of key staff, unexpected loss of a critical supplier, or disruption to essential services such as electricity, not to mention possible disasters such as a fire, storm, flood, or even a terrorist attack.

Being unprepared for such eventualities could be severely damaging and potentially fatal for a business. A little time and energy spent now developing a business continuity plan could prove to be a very worthwhile investment in the future.

Did you know?

• Nearly 1 in 5 businesses suffer a major disruption every year
• 80% of businesses affected by a major incident close within eighteen months
• 90% of businesses that lose data during a disaster close within two years

Data - the weakest link

• Only one in a hundred businesses back up their data daily
• Over half of data back ups are incomplete
• Half of all attempts to restore data are unsuccessful
