Having a well-documented and tested disaster recovery plan is essential in the event of a major incident or cyber attack. We provide business continuity planning to ensure your organization can quickly resume operations with minimal impact.
Disaster Recovery (DR) is more than retrieving a backup.
Backup solutions automatically create copies of important business data on a set schedule. Disaster recovery (DR) solutions go a step further, providing a comprehensive plan for recovering critical business systems and data after a disaster such as a fire, flood, or cyberattack. They seek to maximize speed and efficiency, and minimize business downtime.
Disaster Recovery testing helps to identify gaps or issues before a real emergency occurs.
DR testing allows businesses to confirm that their plan will work as intended. It’s not enough to have a plan; testing ensures that all recovery processes, procedures, and systems are functioning correctly.
When performing DR tests, businesses often uncover areas in their recovery process that need improvement. Identifying and addressing these things ahead of time reduces the likelihood of failure during an actual disaster.
Testing also helps determine how long it will take to recover data and systems, ensuring the duration aligns with business continuity goals.
Maintaining DR plans is a regulatory requirement in some industries, and testing helps ensure compliance with regulations such as HIPAA and Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX).
