Services BackupData Backup & Disaster Recovery Management

Disasters happen — it’s not a matter of if, but when. Are you prepared for that day when all of your data gets erased, maliciously encrypted or is inaccessible for reasons beyond your control? Your data needs to be properly protected.

Having a data backup plan and recovery management program is one area that even the smallest business cannot overlook or take for granted. How much money will you lose if you have to stop your business for hours, days or weeks at a time in order to restore data and get your computers and servers back up?

Frequently Asked Questions About Data Backup and Disaster Recovery Services

What is data backup and disaster recovery?

Backup and disaster recovery involves periodically creating or updating one or more copies of your files, storing them in one or more remote locations, and using the copies to continue or resume business operations in the event of data loss due to file damage, data corruption, cyberattack or natural disaster.

Why do you need a data backup and disaster recovery plan?

Without a data backup and disaster recovery plan, you may be unable to retrieve the data that was lost. Your ability to retrieve data greatly depends on what you’ve done to protect your data and plan for its quick and easy retrieval in the event that something happens.

What is the difference between data recovery and disaster recovery?

Data backup is the process of replicating files to be stored at a designated location. Disaster recovery is a system that helps restore those files following a catastrophe.

What are the three main steps in disaster recovery?

The three phases of disaster recovery include assessment, restoration, and recovery. When disaster strikes, you want to get back to business as quickly as possible. It should all be part of your business continuity plan.

What are the key questions for disaster recovery?

The time to determine the answers to these questions is before something catastrophic happens… Who are the key stakeholders and decision makers who need to be involved in the recovery process? Does your recovery plan meet all compliance objectives? What will happen to key data in the event of a disaster? And finally, what types of disasters do you need to protect your business from?

What is the Recovery Time Objective?

The Recovery Time Objective (RTO) is the duration of time within which a business process must be restored after a hardware malfunction or disaster in order to avoid unacceptable consequences associated with a break in continuity. The RTO is the answer to the question: “How much time will it take to be up and running after a business process disruption?“

What is the Recovery Point Objective?

The Recovery Point Objective (RPO) defines the historical time you can roll back to after a hardware malfunction or disaster in order to avoid unacceptable consequences associated with a break in continuity. The RPO answers the question “Do I need the ability to restore from a day ago, week ago or month ago, if necessary?“

Learn How Break/Fix IT Support Is Costing Your Business

In our business landscape, technology is interwoven with almost every aspect of operations. And the approach to IT management can significantly impact your company’s productivity, efficiency, and even security.

Traditionally, many businesses have operated on a break/fix model — waiting for something to go wrong and then calling in IT support to fix it. However, this reactive approach is increasingly being seen as inefficient and potentially harmful to businesses, especially when compared to proactive managed IT services.
