Adaptability is key for survival. As Charles Darwin noted, “It is not the strongest species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the ones most responsive to change.”
A disaster recovery (DR) plan is a living business document that contains step-by-step directions detailing how to restore your IT infrastructure and get back to work after a disaster. The goal of a disaster recovery plan is to make sure you are ready to respond when your business is interrupted by an event, such as a fire, storm, or cyberattack.
Security management is the development, implementation, and documentation of procedures and policies for protecting an organization’s assets, such as information, equipment, systems, property, and personnel.
The Cost of Business Interruptions

The vast majority (81%) of these interruptions caused the business to be closed one or more days. 80% of businesses suffering a major disaster go out of business in three years, while 40% of businesses that experience a critical IT failure go out of business within one year.* Are you confident that your critical data backups are complete and will be easily restored to get back to business as usual?
