Business Continuity Assessment

Whether due to a cyberattack, a natural disaster, or simple infrastructure failure, downtime can have severe consequences for your business. A Fitzroy IT Business Continuity Assessment will examine what you’ve got in place and how effective it will be in the event of disaster. We can then make recommendations to ensure your plans are comprehensive and complete, and that your company is ready for anything that may eventuate, leveraging such AWS services as CloudFormation, FSx, and Elastic Disaster Recovery.

The Assessment has six phases:

1. A review of your Disaster Recovery Plan
2. A review of your Cyber Incident Response Plan
3. An examination of your backup strategies
4. An examination of your data protection policies
5. An examination of any redundant systems and failover processes
6. An assessment of restoration procedures and return to operations plan

There are many reasons to implement disaster recovery planning:

• Minimise Downtime: Quickly restore critical systems and operations to reduce productivity and revenue losses. • Protect Data: Back up and secure data to prevent loss or corruption. • Maintain Business Continuity: Ensure essential functions continue during and after a disaster, meeting obligations and preserving reputation. • Compliance Requirements: Fulfil regulatory mandates for data protection and operational continuity. • Risk Management: Identify and mitigate potential risks, reducing the likelihood and severity of disruptions. • Preserve Customer Trust: Demonstrate reliability and resilience, retaining customer confidence and loyalty. • Mitigate Financial Losses: Minimise revenue loss, productivity decline, and recovery expenses associated with downtime.
