Business continuity is something no company can afford to ignore any longer. Data continues to grow at an exponential rate, and virtually every business is working in such a competitive marketplace that data must be accessible 24/7/365. And yet, there are more ways than ever for data to be lost, stolen, interrupted, or inaccessible: viruses, malware, power instability, natural disaster, piracy, disgruntled employees, you name it. Today, the vast majority of companies cannot tolerate more than a few hours or even minutes of downtime without serious impact to the bottom line.
What’s a company to do? Well, the smart ones are getting proactive and think about all the what ifs (and their answers) now. They are creating Business Continuity Blueprints that outline all potential risks and threats as well as suitable responses. Beyond that, they are planning for recovering to status-quo as quickly and inexpensively as humanly (and technologically) possible. At Mizon, we can’t help but applaud any business that takes the “Always On” philosophy and integrates it throughout their organization. At the same time, we completely understand that it’s reassuring to have an expert or two on your side that can not only evaluate the strength of your blueprint, but even help you test it in a safe, controlled manner.
Mizon will:
- Review and identify existing plans, and make suggestions for revision or improvement
- Back up at-risk data with sufficient redundancy
- Create and administer individual system challenges to test elements of the blueprint
- Assess challenge results and advise on next-level enhancements
- Provide technology recommendations as necessary to achieve desired results
