Business ContinuityBusiness continuity planning is the creation and validation of a practiced logistical plan for how an organization will recover and restore partially or completely interrupted critical (urgent) functions within a predetermined time after a disaster or extended disruption. Essentially, business continuity is taking the steps necessary to ensure your company will stay in business in the event of disaster. It is important to realize that of the companies that experienced a major loss of business data, ones that do have business continuity in place, 43% never reopen, 51% close within two years, and only 6% will survive long-term.
Business Continuity is a multi-layered plan implementing:
Data storage, backup and recovery
Replication and mirroring
High and continuous availability
Network management & resilience
Disaster Prevention Measures
Anti-virus software and other security measures
