Who needs backup and disaster recovery services?
Every organization that has business-critical data needs these services.
A disaster or critical outage can stop your operations in their tracks.
Any time you lose data, you’ll be glad you had backup and recovery services in place. Both malicious and non-malicious causes can lead to data loss.
Is data loss really that likely?
Unfortunately, yes. It can happen to any organization.
It’s not just cyberattacks that you have to worry about either. Data loss can result from:
- A Malicious or Criminal Attack
- Human Error
- Using Weak/Stolen/Default Passwords
- A Local Disaster (Fire/Flood/Spilled Cup of Coffee)
- Lost or Stolen Devices
- IT and Business Process Failures
- Negligent or Uneducated Employees

Is business continuity different from data backup?
Yes. These two services are related, but not quite the same.
Business Continuity for many organizations ends with the implementation of one solution – a system backup. There are many types of system backups including file-based or imaged based, onsite, or offsite, daily or hourly. And system backups are a major factor in the success of a business’s recovery, but it is not the only component.
Data backup and recovery services offer systems of prevention and recovery to deal with potential threats to a company. Disaster Recovery Plans (DRP) typically focuses on the processes to recover and protect a business’s IT Infrastructure.
Now, you may be asking yourself “Aren’t the two the same?” The short answer is – No. Disaster Recovery Plan focuses on IT Assets whereas Business Continuity Plan focuses on People, Processes, Technology, and Infrastructure. So, while components of recovering IT Assets are included, it is not the sole focus.
