Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Planning prepares you so your business can
recover from a major incident such as catastrophic loss
of a server or even the whole building itself. Every
company should have a disaster recovery plan in place
yet few do. A fire, lightning strike or major tornado
could devastate your company with little or no warning
and leave you unable to conduct business. Disaster Recovery
Planning goes far beyond mere data backups. It is details
the complex task of being able to plan in advance so
you can quickly recover business-critical systems when
faced with an unexpected major incident. Without a Disaster
Recovery Plan, you could be faced with a prolonged and
expensive recovery phase or possible loss of your business
altogether.
What is included
in a Disaster Recovery Plan:
Techni-Core already has a mature Disaster Recovery
Plan in place for our own business and we make sure
that it works by carrying out simulations and proof-of-concept
so we know we can reply on it if the unthinkable
were to happen. When you sign up for Disaster
Recovery Planning, you can be sure we have expertise
in this critical area.
Preparing a viable Disaster Recovery Plan requires
a special approach. Many clients mistakenly think that
having backups of their data is all that is needed.
Another common misconception is that small businesses
don't need a Disaster Recovery Plan (when in actuality
they are the very types of businesses that do not have
the asset strength to sustain major losses). Any organization
that has no plan in place will quickly realize that
they are faced with serious problems in getting their
systems back up and operational after a major incident.
The first stage of Disaster Recovery Planning takes
an educational approach. This includes an introductory
presentation on the art and science of true Disaster
Recovery for your team leaders and management staff.
Techni-Core will help you and your management team understand
what it really takes to get back on your feet in the
face of a major incident.
Techni-Core will then work with you to create an actual
written plan. Because Techni-Core’s focus is on
IT infrastructure, we will create a plan to show you
what is needed to recover your computing assets but
we will also help you identify other non-IT business
assets that will need to be included as well.
Techni-Core will work with you to:
- Identify the types of disasters you should be prepared
for. This includes every type of incident such as loss
of an office building or loss of key personnel to loss
of critical domains servers and so on.
- Characterize disasters, identify your critical assets
and learn which disasters can be avoided altogether.
- Quantify acceptable business downtime and recovery
windows
- Understand risk and how to mitigate risk and loss
- Prepare your Disaster Recovery Plan
- Publish your Plan
- Test your Plan
- Routinely review your Plan
