Data Disaster Recovery for Small to Mid-Sized Businesses
Summary:
Businesses of all sizes have become increasingly dependent on data for the
very existence of the company. Whether it is a large financial institution with transactional data or a 15-person law office with valuable client records, business assets are increasingly represented in the form
of the data we maintain. The business risk of losing this data or having an outage for an extended period of time is well documented and for the
most part, well understood. As evidence, a recent report from Garter Group indicates that server backup in the Small Medium Business (SMB) world is approaching 100%. And recent regulatory requirements are causing businesses to re-examine current recovery plans. There is also an increasing awareness that responsible business protection also includes moving data to a safe offsite location. Certainly there are large-scale disasters such as hurricanes and tornados. However, to the businesses they affect, greater risk exists in the less publicized, but equally damaging events such as fire, floods and theft and even sprinkler system malfunction.But understanding the need is only the first step in the process. Equally important is determining the right data protection strategy for your business.
