Disaster Recovery & Business Continuity
How long can your business run without it’s data or servers? Minutes, hours, days or weeks?
When it comes to your business systems and data there’s no room for error. Understanding your data backup, business continuity and disaster recovery needs is essential to implementing the right solution. If your business is reliant on technology then getting this decision wrong can lead to lost productivity, revenue and even your business itself.
There have been a number of high profile cyber-attacks in the news recently, whether the serious data security breach at Travelex – BBC Report (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-51017852) or the large-scale ransomware attack that disrupted NHS hospital and GP appointments – BBC Report (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-39899646).
These are far from isolated cases with 85% of Managed Service Providers reporting malware attacks on their Small and Medium Sized Business customers in the last two years (according to a recent survey by the global Business Continuity specialists Datto), and the sophistication and variety of malicious attacks on IT systems are only increasing
These types of IT security breaches are likely to have major financial, reputational and legal consequences for the victim companies, but there are steps that you can take to minimise the risks to your business.
Key to this are Disaster Recover and Business Continuity plans. Here at Novem we work with clients to implement a Disaster Recovery plan that includes controlling physical access to your hardware as well as protecting against harm that may come via unsolicited network access, malicious data and code injection from external and internal threat sources. For Business Continuity, we assess your current IT Systems, storage and backup strategy, and agree your priorities for service recovery.
