What’s the Difference Between Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery?
When companies look at protecting their IT systems, Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery are often confused. Both are essential, but they serve different purposes:
Business Continuity
-
Focuses on keeping your business operational during a disruption
-
Minimises downtime so staff, customers, and systems can continue working
-
Covers wider business functions such as phones, email, and network access
-
A Business Continuity Plan (BCP) ensures critical services keep running, even in emergencies
Disaster Recovery
-
Focuses on restoring IT systems and data after a disaster
-
Aims to recover servers, applications, and files as quickly as possible
-
Primarily technical, dealing with backups, replication, and system rebuilds
-
A Disaster Recovery Plan (DRP) is a vital part of your Business Continuity strategy
Managed Backups for SME's
With businesses being more reliant on IT and technology today than ever before it can be devastating when disaster strikes. From lost orders and revenue to potentially large fines, it can be almost impossible for business to survive without backups & continuity plans in place.
Additionally, it’s now a GDPR requirement for businesses to have appropriate measures in place to restore access to personal data in the event of a disaster.
