Offsite and cloud backup. An effective offsite and cloud backup is a combination of hardware, software, facilities, people, procedures, and management processes that protect vital data and systems from damage or interruption. It is a process or system that provides for the restoration of data, programs, and operational capabilities following the occurrence of an emergency or disaster. It should provide:

  • Consistent image of all data across multiple locations.
  • Rapid recovery to minimize data loss in case of disaster.
  • Easy access to information off-site in case of local disasters such as fire or earthquake.

What is data backup and disaster recovery solution?

Currently, backup experts recommend that companies make daily incremental backups of their critical data. These backups are then stored away in case the company needs to restore its data in the event of a major disaster such as a fire or a flood.

The most important thing to know is that when you have a backup system in place, it doesn’t matter how often you back up your data. Daily backups are best, but weekly or monthly backups are also better than no backups at all. It’s the backup system itself that matters, not how often you use it.
That’s because an effective backup system doesn’t just do one backup—it does many. If any one of those backups fails, you’ll be glad you have more than one. And if none of them fail, well then you’ll be glad for all those extra backups too.

Risk assessment

  • Define all critical functions systems, software and data in your organization.
  • Prioritize the above items in order of importance to your business (mission critical to minor) based on which ones, if destroyed, would have the greatest negative impact on your business
  • Create a document that outlines your current IT infrastructure network documentation) so another IT person or company could take over easily if your current IT person wasn’t available, or could assist in the recovery of your IT infrastructure in the event of a disaster.
  • Determine the RTO (recovery time objective), RPO (recovery point objective) and MTO (maximum tolerable outage) for every critical function and system in your business.
  • Identify all threats that could potentially disrupt or destroy the above mentioned data, systems, functions, etc. and the likelihood of those threats

Mitigation and planning strategies

  • Create an IT Assets Inventory list and identity all the functions, data, hardware and systems in your business
  • Identify all potential disasters and threats to these systems and functions
  • For each mission critical system or function, brainstorm ways to minimize, avoid or limit the damage done
  • For the most likely disasters threats disaster recovery plan specific to what damage could be done (tornado flattens your office, city evacuation, virus attack etc.), and identify who will be responsible for executing the plan (your disaster recovery team)
  • Identify recovery plan and timeline for each function and prioritize these functions by the order in which they need to be recovered if multiple mission critical functions were affected
  • Create a backup strategy for your data and systems
  • Create a testing and validation strategy, and schedule tests for your backups
  • Define your communication plan in the event of a disaster employees, clients, vendors and the media
  • Create a “break the glass” document that contains instructions on what to do if key executive dies, is disabled, or is otherwise unavailable long period of time
  • Review your current insurance policy to make sure you have sufficient coverage to replace the assets in your organization
  • Define a media communication strategy (how you will communicate with the press disaster happens)
