Disaster recovery: the rescue of the future

From the pandemic until today, the world of work has evolved to meet the needs of an increasingly technological and fluid environment, becoming hybrid, with no limits of space and time. 

For this reason, the emergence of cloud platforms has been the best solution, due to ease of use and cost saving, complementing traditional work software, new and more flexible spaces. 

Because of the rapid evolution of these technologies, we found ourselves working easily from our devices but, as is always the case with technological progress, we had to sacrifice something. 

IT teams around the world, have given up direct control of the machines on which their data reside, using more cloud-storage systems, but at the cost of incredible advantages in security, flexibility and performance. 

Every system has its own challenges, more or less difficult to face, especially in an ever-changing world like the cloud:

• the increase in data-breach cases within large companies such as Facebook, Yahoo, and Experience has made people increasingly aware of how easily their data can be accessed if not properly protected;

• the data protection laws have become increasingly stringent requiring advanced control systems;

• since 2021cases of cyber crime have increased exponentially, with an estimated one attack every 11 seconds. The realization that data theft nowadays is a difficult problem;

• this has only increased attacks, which is why companies have begun to implement more cyber security strategies;

• the enormous flexibility of the cloud, carries greater risks if not well managed by professionals.  

How do we ensure the security of our data and that of our customers?

When it comes to data protection, it is not enough to simply make a copy to keep in case of the unexpected. 

The Disaster Recovery is a set of strategies and processes aimed at the preservation and/or restoration of infrastructure, systems and databases to be implemented in emergency situations caused by man-made or natural external forces. Through continuous system backup you will be able to protect your work and data in real time. 

But beware, simple does not mean less effective.

The main goal of Disaster recovery systems is to enable your devices to get back up and running as quickly as possible on any cloud, public or private. 

How does Disaster Recovery differ from normal data rescue techniques?

Using software such as HYCU, which specializes in Disaster Recovery, you will have a system that will not just create copies of your strategic assets. 

HYCU:

• is a dynamic, scalable, 100% Saas system;

• helps you schedule backups with zero impact on your workforce and without the use of specialized agents in ensuring maximum protection;

• does not store or control your data;

• just one click to activate the protection system on all the cloud services you already use;

• you can make use of a single intuitive and efficient interface to move and upload all your data safely;

• you can move data, while maintaining application functionality, between one environment and another, again with one click.

Sleep sound dreams in any situation, even the most difficult ones. 

Although unforeseen events are inevitable and cyber attacks are increasingly frequent, there are actions that you can put in place in order to arrive as prepared as possible:

1. choose the best software in the cloud;
2. make sure the policies for backing up and restoring data are clear, so you can act promptly in any situation;
3. look at your efforts on Disaster Recovery as an investment for the future and peace of mind of your business;
4. trust a partner experienced in data management and disaster recovery, such as power2Cloud.
