If you lost your data how would you cope?

When considering Disaster Recovery - ask Yourself some of the following questions?

Image

  1. What would happen if the key offices were inaccessible? 

  2. If we lost our servers and critical data how would we continue to trade?

  3. How would data be stored and how would they be recovered? 

  4. What would be the impact of losing current data? For instance, what happens if an emergency occurs towards the end of a business day before backups have been taken?

  5. What equipment is available to recover the data to and how quickly could a working environment be constructed to allow the organisation to continue to function?

  6. Desktop computers 

  7. Servers 

  8. Single or multiple field laptop computers 

It is now generally recognized that Business  continuity planning and disaster recovery planning are vital activities. However, the creation of (and maintenance of) a sound business continuity and disaster recovery plan, is a complex undertaking, involving a series of steps. 

Prior to creation of the plan itself, it is essential to consider the potential impacts of disaster and to understand the underlying risks: these are the foundations upon which a sound business continuity plan or disaster recovery plan should be built. 

Following these activities the plan itself must be constructed - no small task. This itself must then be maintained, tested and audited to ensure that it remains appropriate to the needs of the organization. And what about the support infrastructure and services?

Backup of Business critical data is one of the most important and sometimes forgotten issues that any business or individual faces.  From your daily documents to your personal photos, what would you do if you lost them?

BITES-UK offers a range of solutions from Tape backup to secure Online storage.

For many years the digital tape backup has been used to ensure your companies data is safe, but ask yourself and your IT a question, when was the last time you checked your tapes?

The lifespan of a tape will vary however ensuring you can restore your backup is as important as making the backup in the first place.  The tape drive should be cleaned on a regular basis and test restore processes and procedures tested to ensure the tape drive is working correctly.
