Risk Assessment

In the Houston metropolitan area, storms and hurricanes are typical threats, but everything from water pipe breaks, power outages to network vulnerabilities enabling cyber attacks and more are possible.

Data Prioritization

Understanding how your data is created, and how critical it is to your business, will help determine how often and how the data should be backed up, whether it should be every 5 minutes or several times a day.

With a thorough assessment, your backup and recovery options based on your specific needs and budget are presented based on Industry Best Practices.

Repercussions of Downtime

Unplanned downtime is not a question of “If?“, but “When?”

24 % of companies said they experienced a full data disaster (1)
44% of small business have been the victim of a cyber attack (2)
Average sized companies have 16 to 20 hours of network, system, or application downtime per year (3)
70% of small businesses that experience a major data loss go out of business within a year (4)

Data loss means downtime, and downtime will impact your bottom line with lost sales revenue, productivity, incurring cost to restore IT systems, compliance issues and damage to your company reputation.
