Hi

“Poor Man’s” DR Plan?

To think that a disaster or some type of an emergency will never happen to your organization is more than naïve - it’s irresponsible.  You might think "I'm doing backups everyday and running anti-virus software"  - but this is a 'poor man's' solution to a disaster  and it does not mean that you have a Disaster Recovery Plan. These things are necessary, however they are only a small piece of what is required.

The recent power spike in the Wellington region due to problems at the Haywards substation and the catastrophic system failure experienced by Air New Zealand both highlight a need for a solid Disaster Recovery Plan for ALL companies.

In preparing a Disaster Recovery Plan you need to work with four tenants of plan development. They are Mitigation, Preparation, Response and Recovery. Over the next few months we will examine each of these areas in more detail.  To view the first principle - Mitigation - follow this link..... 
 

There's a Storm Coming...

Are you ready?  LANtech can advise there are Cloud's on the horizon which will be moving directly over Wellington.   Watch this space in the next LANlines and learn how this might impact your business!!!
