Disaster Recovery

Disaster Recovery is the recovery of systems at a time when the systems are operating within an acceptable loss of data or equipment.
Disaster Recovery includes business processes and technologies. Technology recovery can take place at different levels: applications, systems and data.
Applications can be returned to server systems for access through local or virtual infrastructure. Applications can also stream kernel application code from a centralized application presentation system to a host device. Local resources such as printers, drives, and other network resources are available to the guest device. In either case, applications can be reinstated individually or as part of a whole system restoration.
Systems, which can include various server types, can be restored through use of backups taken prior to the outage.
Finally, the data is the information that either the applications or systems access. It too can be restored from backup at a point in time before the outage.

Let’s Unpack That

RTO Target Recovery Time (RTO) is the maximum amount of time a computer, system, network, or application can fail after a failure or disaster has occurred. For example, if the RTO for an application is one hour, overcoming data to external hard disks may be the best solution.

RPO- A Point Recovery Objective (RPO) is defined as a continuation of business planning. This is the maximum target period during which data (transactions) from the IT service may be lost due to a serious incident.

BCDR Plan – BCDR stands for Business Continuity / Disaster Recovery. The role of the BCDR is to minimize the effects of outages and business disruptions. Developing such a strategy is a complex process that involves conducting business impact assessments (BIAs) and risk analysis, as well as developing BCDR plans, tests, exercises and training.

Backup vs. DRaaS – There are important differences between backup and disaster recovery. Backup is the process of making additional copies (or multiple copies) of data. Disaster recovery, on the other hand, refers to a plan and processes for quickly recovering access to applications, data, and IT resources after a loss.

Why Choose Disaster Recovery?

Without a DR plan, the company can be restored in the event of a first day disaster.
Loss of sales will inevitably affect revenue.
Failure to serve customers leads to mistrust and can reduce the number of existing or repeat customers.
Unproductive staff costs are avoided.

Why Work With Us?

With all the potential risks for enterprise applications that are critical to your company’s mission, a disaster recovery plan is essential. No two environments are the same, and our clients repeatedly face the challenge of maintaining a secondary environment with a limited number of employees. They also have the task of identifying and selecting the right DRaaS partner and filtering out the endless range of providers who can provide these services. As with customer work environments, DRaaS vendors are always diverse.
We work with our clients to understand their goals and create a complete disaster recovery plan. Our clients are ready to identify suitable suppliers to move closer to achieving their disaster recovery goals. Our company has partnered with many leading suppliers in the DR sector to make this initiative a simple process for you and your team.

Is Disaster Recovery Right for My Organization?

A disaster recovery plan is essential for any business that can be adversely affected if it does not open for a long time.
To calculate this, consider the economic impact that one hour of downtime can have on your business. How much revenue will your business lose if your clients do not have access to your critical systems?

Things to Consider

Keep your software up to date. Hackers are constantly looking for vulnerabilities for security, and if you ignore these vulnerabilities for too long, you will increase your chances of further targeting. Educate your employees. Educate your employees about the different ways cybercriminals can infiltrate your systems. Advise them on how to recognize signs of intrusion and teach them how to stay safe when using a corporate network. Implement formal security policies. Setting and enforcing security policies is essential to protecting your system. Everyone should keep network protection in mind, because anyone who uses it can be a potential venture for attackers. Hold regular meetings and seminars on cyber security best practices, such as using strong passwords, identifying and reporting suspicious emails, enabling two-factor authentication, and clicking on links or downloading attachments. Practice your incident response plan. Despite your best efforts, there may come a time when your company is the victim of a cyber attack. When that day comes, it’s important that your employees manage the consequences. By creating a response plan, attacks can be easily identified and ruled out before they do more damage.
