survive and go on to function successfully
Implementing redundant IT infrastructure and contingency plans were always deemed to be prohibitively expensive unless you were a large organisation. However, new and economical, on-demand cloud technologies are putting robust business continuity strategies within reach for millions of businesses.
QCom adopt a three step approach to helping our clients with disaster planning and protecting their companies against unscheduled downtime:
Business Impact Analysis
This will reveal what data and functions your organisation cannot survive without. It will also show how long you can survive whilst being down, in other words, what period of downtime is acceptable.
Risk Assessment
Manage Your Risks.
Once you’ve identified the risks, you must manage them. Do you want the data to live in-house, in a highly redundant data centre facility or maybe both? Ensure that your data is regularly backed up and test your ability to recover from a disaster but running scheduled tests.
