It’s not just about Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery. It’s about Business Continuance!
Can you survive during a business disruption? This is the most important part of your business IT strategy!
Why Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery are important.
“Business continuity” defines how a business will proceed during and following a disaster. It may provide plans, outlining how the business will continue to operate even if it has to move to an alternate location. Business continuity planning may also consider smaller interruptions or minor disasters, such as extended power outages.
Disaster recovery defines the plans a business puts into place for responding to a catastrophic event, such as fire, act of terror, natural disaster, or cybercrime. Disaster recovery involves the measures a business takes to respond to an event and return to safe, normal operation as quickly as possible.
Being able to recover from a disaster is only part of equation. Being able to continue during a disaster is The KEY!
