How long could your business stay in business if
you lost your data?
Did you know
that 80% of companies that lose all the data on their computer systems and do
not have proper backups, go out of business?
How a company
survives these events may very well depend on the effectiveness of their
disaster recovery plan. It is critical for businesses to protect their
networks from both data loss and machine failure. Some of the
potential causes of failure include:
-
Hard disk sub-system failure
-
Power failure
-
Systems software failure
-
Destructive viruses
-
Natural disasters (fire flood, earthquake, and so on)
-
Theft or sabotage
- Accidental or malicious use of detection or modification commands
As part of your
organisation's computer management system, you should put in place a regular
backup procedure. However, having a backup of data, and perhaps all
programs, does not guarantee the recovery of data. It is important to test
your backup plan, otherwise the day that they are needed you may find that
problems have been occurring for months - if not years - and that all backups on
hand are unrecoverable. Paying close attention to backup activity logs and
carrying out monthly test restore procedures is a critical component to the
backup procedures.
There are many levels of planning for
Disaster Recovery, from performing in-house backup, to securing your data at
off-site locations.
