A Disaster Recovery Plan is crucial in any business. We identify effective solutions to prevent the loss of critical data, minimize downtime and to implement a realistic Disaster Recovery Plan.

We offer 3 options to implement Data Loss Prevention and/or Disaster Recovery Planning:

  1. We audit your Local/Wide Area Network and existing documentation, compile a report on our findings with recommendations.

  2. The 2nd Option will also include a detailed Disaster Recovery Plan and the project management thereof.
  3. Purchase a Documentation Template on Disaster Recovery Planning, which will enable you to simply adjust the contents of the documentation template to suit your specific requirements. The documentation template is designed in standard MSWORD format and is based on the methodology that your entire network may be rebuilt from a single document in the event of minor to major disasters. Follow this link for detailed information on the Documentation Template.
