In the wake of all disasters from hard drive failures to hurricanes and tornadoes users too often must learn and focus on the importance of making backups and keeping them secure from damage and off-site. Many already rely on off-site servers to backup and save there clients information, web sites and valuable information pertaining to record keeping and replacement of paper records.

On average, downtime can cost a company between $2,500 and $10,000 per minute according to the Standish Group, a leading research firm. A disaster such as a cyber attack, natural disaster, theft, or fire can bring down critical applications and take anywhere from 72 hours to two weeks to recover from.

The Disaster Recovery Plan is the most important item in your armory. It is what you will turn to if there is indeed a disaster or other serious incident.

Hopefully, you will never have to use it, but if you do, it can be the difference between the loss of your organization and its survival.
