Cloud Central business continuity

Business Continuity

Disasters of all kinds can cause devastating downtime to any business

A business continuity plan is vital to protect your organisation from unforeseen digital threats and uncontrollable mishaps. Cloud computing services allow for data to be mirrored at various different sites within the cloud’s network. As a result of this, business continuity is strengthened through simple disaster recovery and data backup.

Cloud Central disaster planning

Disaster planning must encompass disasters of all types and sizes: fires, floods, fraud, ransomware, cyber-attacks, power or IT system failures, human error, acts of terror, and much more. While the type of disaster varies, the impact is consistent: devastating data loss and operational downtime for your business.

Achieving business continuity through the cloud avoids sizeable up-front investment, saves SMEs’ time and provides access to remote, on-demand professional expertise.

Vulnerability

The knock-on effects of downtime can be devastating for a business. Common disasters include irreparable damage to data, reputation, customer relationships, income, and business vitality. 

In order to protect your business, it is vital to understand your vulnerabilities, whilst safeguarding against the risks and preparing for the worst possible business disruption in the process. A well designed business continuity plan and expert disaster recovery measures will shield your data, protect your business, and keep your systems available and reliable 24/7.

Disaster Recovery

Disasters can happen to any business, at any time. When the right precautions are not put in place, many businesses never fully recover from the damages caused.

90% of companies experience some form of downtime, which may result in loss of data, security, productivity and revenue. However, this does not need to be irreversible. Cloud computing offers secure backup solutions for SMEs, to ensure that a business's critical data is immediately restored after any loss.

Every size of business needs to have a Disaster Plan in place. Your plan should encompass all types of disaster from fires and floods, to fraud, ransomware, cyber-attacks, IT or power failures, acts of terror or human error.

The far-reaching effects of downtime caused by a disaster can be devastating for any business. These include: irreparable damage to data, reputation, customer relationships, business vitality and income. 

The best offense is a good defence; you must protect your business by understanding your vulnerabilities, safeguarding against the risks, and preparing for the worst possible business disruption. Developing a business continuity plan with strong disaster recovery measures in place gives you the best chance. You will be able to protect your business, shield your data and keep your systems available under any circumstances.

Unmatchable document control is also available through migrating to a cloud based system. All of your documents can be stored on one secure location filed in a single format to guarantee consistent data. This consistency is strengthened further through all individuals being able to access the same information, having a record of all revisions and avoiding human error.

Cloud Central can help you develop a disaster recovery plan that is reliable, simple, efficient, scalable and affordable. The cloud provides far more uptime than regular local IT networks, resulting in a more productive and reliable business operation.
