Data protection needs more attention
Small disasters can come from bad habits such as your staff logging into public Wi-Fi when out and about.
Downtime can have different impacts on different companies, varying in the value of data lost over time. Some companies may feel they can afford to lose some data over a short time, where others will feel like every second of data is crucial.
Each department or staff member could have a different current backup approach whether it be physical or virtual, which could result in different timings of being able to access data.
Downtime comes with challenges:
- Lost data
- Lasting negative impact
- Lost business
- High costs – Not affordable
- Loss of reputation and client trust
- Backup alone isn’t enough
There is good news! And it comes in the name of BCDR, Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery which eliminates downtime.
