BACKUP AND DISASTER RECOVERY

Accidents happen. Files become corrupt. Hard drives fail. Employees accidentally delete folders and may be fooled into clicking on malicious emails.

Devising an IT Disaster Recovery Plan
Essential Components
An effective IT disaster recovery plan will provide you with a roadmap to get essential systems running again quickly after a disaster. Our plans incorporate recovery strategies for hardware, software, data, and connectivity. For each component, we can help you determine how to prepare for a disaster as well as what actions must take place if a calamity occurs.
For example, consider the software your company uses. A reliable plan will make sure that you can easily access copies of your operating system software and business-critical applications so that they can be quickly reinstalled after a disaster. Standardising the operating system software and applications can make software recovery easier. To ensure that the software restoration goes smoothly after a disaster.
Business Continuity
If you already have a business continuity plan, Extranet Systems will help you make sure your current plan can meet the recovery time objective (RTO) and recovery point objective (RPO) defined in the continuity plan.
Extranet Systems will also help you test the IT disaster recovery plan periodically, just like a fire drill, to make sure it works as designed. Our technical team has the business experience to evaluate each component of the plan to ensure your company is prepared and minimises downtime.
