Get Your Data Protected with BDR

Running a business is stressful, but so is thinking about a future where that business (and its data) no longer exists. If you’re not careful with your preparedness, you could stare down a disaster with no hopes of recovery. This is why we urge you to take proactive action now—so you can prevent these kinds of scenarios from taking your business off the market for good.

Let’s go over four scenarios where you’ll be glad you have implemented a comprehensive data backup and disaster recovery solution. Goodness knows your business and bottom line will thank you, too.

Natural Disasters

Threats like tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, and so on can all impact your ability to access important data. We acknowledge that not every business is in a region where extreme weather conditions can threaten them, but you should be prepared for any type of natural disaster, just in case something were to happen. There are some natural disasters that can harm a business no matter where it’s located, like electrical fires, power surges, and so on.

Data Breaches

Ah, yes, the dreaded data breach. It doesn’t matter if you are a small business or a major enterprise; your organization has data that hackers would love to get their grimy hands on. Personal data, financial records, and other types of sensitive information can all fetch a handsome price on the black market, and in some cases, your data could be held for ransom or even destroyed by malware. It’s always a good idea to prioritize not just cybersecurity but also data backup.

Hardware Failure

Technology cannot be expected to last forever, and a server unit crashing can be a devastating blow to your business if you are unprepared to handle it. You should have a data backup plan in place that is capable of restoring your infrastructure in the event you experience such a hardware failure.

User Error

People make mistakes, and you should not only expect them to, but be prepared for them to do so. Implementing a data backup and disaster recovery solution can help you recover files in the event your employees accidentally delete them or harm your technology in some way.
