Business continuity is the number one priority of any high-end business that wants to compete in the market and create a name of itself. If your customers can not trust their data with you then they won’t put their trust in you. So, downtime is never an option for any business and a dedicated DR appliance can help achieve that.
Protection against Cyber-Threats
Ransomware and other cyber-threats have been around for a long time and there is no chance of them going away anytime soon. Ransomware leads to not only data loss but also downtime as well, and in worse cases, it can actually cripple a business ‘out of business’ if not dealt with properly beforehand.
By leveraging a backup and disaster recovery appliance, businesses can easily backup their systems and files and protect them against ransomware. This will enable businesses to recover their data in a matter of minutes without having to pay any sort of ransom to gain access to their data and will put their mind to peace.
Encrypted Backups
A good disaster recovery backups appliance encrypts the data it is backing up so that all the files and systems are protected. It allows total ownership of the data and prevents unwanted and malicious access to important data.
StoneFly offers encryption with all of its disaster recovery appliances. It provides advanced AES 256-bit encryption with data transit also encrypted with SSL encryptions. Making it a secure, reliable disaster recovery solution.
Reduced Downtime
Downtime is a major concern for a business as it impacts business continuity directly. A business can only sustain a limited amount of downtime, after which it may cost them millions in loss and be at risk of going out of business.
By leveraging a backup and disaster recovery plan, businesses can reduce the downtime to a few minutes.
StoneFly’s DR365V offers RTOs as low as less than 15 minutes. This enables businesses to continue operations quickly and suffer almost no downtime, which in return ensures business continuity.
RTO is basically the Recovery Time Object, which means how long does it take to recover data. It greatly reflects a business's ability that much downtime they can sustain. For instance, if a business cannot handle downtime greater than 2 hours, then its RTO should definitely be less than 2 hours.
To Conclude
Business continuity is a major concern for a business. In order to progress, a business needs business continuity and a dedicated DR appliance can provide that with reduced RTOs and encrypted backups.
