Disaster Recovery
Disasters happen. Who’s your cleanup crew?
Disasters are a matter of when, not if. Determining your company’s must-haves will help you get back on-track faster after the unexpected strikes. Disaster Recovery Planning identifies the “what if” scenarios that can make or break your company. Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) protects your data and company from natural or human disaster or service disruption.
Disaster Recovery Planning
Think—a backup for your backup. It’s the safety net your company needs to restore data quickly and keep operating. We help you navigate the ins and outs of plans and suggest solutions that take the fear out of the unknown.
Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS)
Once you have a plan, you need an expert response team who can jump into action and help regain access to your IT infrastructure. In today’s global and interconnected world, it takes a village to keep your company safe.
The best offense is a great defense
When it comes to disaster recovery security, we’ve seen it all, and we’d be happy to work with you to develop the plan that’ll best meet your needs. All our DR planning engagements begin with an assessment. If the plan is a simple one—meaning its scope is principally backups plus cloud-based services to augment those backups—then the assessment is free. If the scope is larger, as would be the case with a full-fledged plan that will be presented to a Board of Directors, an insurer, or other similar responsible parties, then the assessment fee is based on the number of facilities and users included in the plan, as well as the complexity of the IT systems in question. The scope of Disaster Recovery (DR) could include:
- Backup of servers and data to cloud storage
- Replication of servers to parallel hardware at a secondary data center
- Plan documents outlining scenarios, contacts, resources, and intended actions
- Hot or cold spare equipment
- Solutions for voice and fax failover or emergency scenarios
- Hot office subscription
