Business Contuinituy Planning & Disaster Recovery
Business Disaster Recovery
If You Fail To Plan, Plan To Fail. Simple As That.
Nationwide, our clients have experienced massive wildfires, tornadoes, attempted cyber-attacks, blizzards, and even hurricanes.
Not a single one had to come back into the office until they were ready, and the business stayed fully operational.
Don’t wait until your business is in crisis to have a continuity and disaster recovery plan. Having a BCDR strategy keeps your business resilient, in the black, out of the red, and out of bankruptcy court when disaster strikes.
How We Build Your BCDR Strategy
Risk Assessment & Business Impact Analysis
We start with a thorough understanding of your enterprise assets and the software and hardware involved in your business processes. This helps us build a plan tailored to your needs with appropriate precautions for your assets.
Communication Plan
Don’t play directly into the hands of a threat actor. Make sure that your team knows where to get the information they need.
Business Continuity Plan Development
We plan for the secure configuration and process management of your hardware, software, data, and privacy protections. As soon as this piece is in place, we can create an audit log, capable of tracking any events across your network. This creates stability and accountability so you can focus on what you need to do – run your business.
Training, Awareness, & Testing
Think of this phase like a digital fire drill for the office, for every person, network, and device. Everyone needs to know where to go, when to go there, how and where to communicate, and what are the next steps while waiting for further instruction. Our training goal is confident awareness for every employee, from management down.
Disaster Recovery Planning
1. Backups & Recovery Strategy
Here is exactly how we help our clients be prepared to rebuild. First, based on their plan, we develop a custom strategy for getting back to work: email and intranet web browser protections.
2. Data Recovery & Integrity
We verify the data we manage and use to restore information systems are secure and accurate. We also add additional layers of malware defense to guard you through your transitional phase, so no one can kick you while you’re down.
3. Offsite Storage & Redundancies
If your office is shuttered due to a natural disaster, your worst-case scenario is that all of your backups are… also at the office. Office burned down? So did your backups. This is why we back up your data in three places – on-site, offsite, and in the cloud, so it’s ready whenever you need it.
4. Communication & Coordination
The hardest part of operating on a need-to-know basis is well… deciding who needs to know and when they need to know it. We help you build a communications plan and coordinate every step so your entire team is informed and empowered to do their jobs.
5. Continuous Monitoring & Improvement
We recommend reviewing your disaster recovery strategy and business continuity plan at least twice a year. This keeps your organization abreast of any emerging threats and also allows you to examine recent events for lessons learned. You can also take advantage of penetration testing and red team exercises.
6. Regulatory Compliance
Finally, the last piece of the recovery puzzle is regulatory compliance. Different sectors have different requirements for your disaster planning, like boundary defenses (both physical and digital), access control, account monitoring, and more. We can help you make sure you meet and exceed every regulation in your industry.
