- It’s impossible to completely eliminate downtime and outages. However, a consistently updated disaster recovery plan drastically reduces downtime. A few things to include in this plan are:
- Data backups and recovery (along with backup validity)
- Restoring servers
- Recovering critical systems first
- Scanning and removing unauthorized users in the event of a breach
- App deployment along with updates
- Restoring secondary services and apps
- Setting up secure off-site backups, images, etc.
- Fixing any exploited vulnerabilities (can’t come back online until the problem is fixed)
- Offer custom assessments based on your business needs
