Is your network prepared for a worst-case scenario?

Is your network prepared for a worst-case scenario?

1st Feb 2022

Online security and backup storage have never been more important. As more and more organizational data is moved into the cloud, more opportunities for critical failures resulting from cybercriminals, natural disasters, and user error arise.

  • Ransomware and other cybercrime is on the rise. The firm Cybersecurity Ventures estimates that Ransomware Costs are Expected to Reach $265 Billion by 2031. They also predict that there will be a new attack every 2 seconds as ransomware perpetrators progressively refine their malware payloads and related extortion activities. (Link to article)
  • Natural and man-made disasters such as large-scale flooding and power grid failures are on the rise as well. Global warming will, in the long term, exacerbate these problems in the years to come.

Disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS) can lessen the risk and fallout of these growing problems.

DRaaS is a cloud computing service model that allows an organization to back up its data and IT infrastructure in a third-party cloud computing environment.

You buy insurance for your house. You buy insurance for your car and for your health. You can even buy insurance for your pet hamster or in the event you get abducted by aliens. DRaaS is a critical insurance policy you need for your online infrastructure.

In a digital economy, your entire business is data, and every byte needs to be protected. Consequences of a disaster event damage business health, without guarantee of bounceback.

Disaster recovery is a need-to-have for every organization, but infrastructure and maintenance responsibilities can be costly and distracting for your in-house technology experts.

Here are some things to consider when looking for a DRaaS service provider…

  1. Preventative maintenance - Make sure the service provider plans for an emergency long before it happens. What is their emergency response plan? Have they tested it?
  2. Redundancy - Does the provider have backup power generators, geographic diversity of facilities in case of natural disaster, or backup supplies in case of maintenance problems?
  3. Accessibility - How easy is it to reach your provider? Do they have 24/7 customer support? How quickly can they respond to problems?
