Disaster Recovery & Business Continuity
Business Continuity
Businesses of all sizes are increasingly becoming dependent on an uninterrupted flow of information. At the same time, the threats are growing in type and magnitude. They are as old as fire and flood and as new as the latest virus, spam and intrusions and as horrific as the terrorist and malicious attacks.
In today's world, business continuity is no longer a luxury; it is a way of life. The SEC, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and a host of government and industry regulators are urging, and in some cases requiring, the development of business continuity plans.
Business contingency planning for many operations requires the storage of mission-critical data and information in an off-site location in the event their primary location is damaged. By utilizing centralised, real-time, byte-level, high-availability data replication into a secure location, your I.T. business functions will have zero downtime, which means continuous availability even in the event of unforeseen disaster, ensuring continued company revenue, productivity, and customer satisfaction.
Netshield allows you to sleep with the peace of mind that your valuable data is safe in an off site, fully redundant facility, ready for immediate recovery.
