Proactive Business Management
Businesses have come to recognise that some services of the organisation have to be delivered continuously without interruption. Therefore, instead of focusing only on resuming the business in the shortest possible time, the endeavor is to create an IT Business Continuity Plan to ensure that critical operations continue to be functional even during a disaster. The ideal plan would be one in which your clients will not be aware of the occurrence of the disaster since critical and core business services will continue as before.
The Three 'P's
People, Policy and Procedures are the three buckets that drive business success
They can also be its downfall. A Business Continuity Plan formalises your company’s IT policies, procedures and precautions to minimise downtime should the worst happen. It’s basically risk management in action on a daily basis. You are managing potential risks that could impair or jeopardise your business IT. What are those risks? They can be anything from viruses or hardware failure to fire, cyclone or other natural disaster. More often than not, it falls into the camp of human error. NETWORK 24 assesses your business infrastructure, operations and environment to develop and deploy a Business Continuity Plan tailored to your business operation.
The risk of doing nothing
"System failures happen only to big companies with complex networks" — NOT true
Your IT system doesn’t know if it’s a Fortune 500 corporation or a small start-up. All it knows is that it sees a lot of traffic going back and forth over the Internet, email, intranet, mobile devices and the server network that exposes your company to risk, regardless of its size. A Business Continuity Plan from NETWORK 24 includes a comprehensive Backup and Recovery Plan and Restore Procedures to meet required Recovery Point Objectives (RPOs) and Recovery Time Objectives (RTOs) – Without a Disaster Recovery Plan your business is missing an essential aspect of operating a healthy business.
