Data Backup & Disaster Recovery (BDR)

Protect Your Most Valuable Asset

Data is the most valuable asset you own. The investments you make in networks, computers, and software are to collect data that is turned into information to keep your organization running, your customers serviced, and your team optimized.

BDR stands for data backup disaster and recovery, which is a set of strategies and procedures that help businesses protect their data and maintain continuity in the event of a security incident. BDR is an essential part of a business’s IT infrastructure and is often considered a prime defense against cyberattacks such as ransomware.

While loss of information is the goal, there are additional reasons to invest in a comprehensive BDR program:

  • Business Continuity: A well-structured backup and disaster recovery plan ensures that businesses can quickly resume operations after an incident, minimizing financial and reputational damage.

  • Data Protection: Safeguarding sensitive and critical data is crucial in maintaining trust with clients and complying with regulatory requirements.

  • Risk Mitigation: By preparing for potential disasters, organizations can reduce the impact of unexpected events, whether they are natural disasters, cyberattacks, or system failures.

Data Backup & Disaster Recovery (BDR)

Success Means Planning In Advance of a Crisis

Should your organization experience a loss of data (for any reason), data backup disaster and recovery (BDR) planning must occur beforehand to successfully avoid a loss of information and potentially the ability to conduct business. Very little can be done after an incident without BDR protocols being in place. So don’t wait, get started today with minimal daily backups to ensure your organization can move forward while trying to recover from a cyber attack or crippling network failure. How does BDR work?

Backup:

Global CTI will create copies of your organization’s data to protect against loss. This can involve duplicating files, databases, or entire systems onto separate storage media. Backups serve as a safeguard, enabling data restoration in the event of accidental deletion, hardware failure, or cyberattacks. Our system engineers will also establish a regular backup schedule, using methods such as full, incremental, or differential backups, to ensure data integrity.

Disaster Recovery:

Before a loss of data occurs, Global CTI will help establish critical policies and procedures to enable the recovery or continuation of your company’s vital technology infrastructure and systems. The aim is to minimize downtime and data loss, which means evaluating the need for redundancies and other critical network needs. DR plans are done in advance of an actual loss to help identify potential risks, along with the steps needed to restore systems and data. 

Recovery:

Recovery is the process of restoring lost or damaged data and resuming normal operations after a disruption. Global CTI will be at your side for not only technical steps to restore data but also the details needed to ensure the continuity of business operations. We’ll also schedule regular recovery procedures testing to ensure they function correctly when needed.

An Essential Parter

Data backup and disaster recovery (BDR) has evolved from a complex, time-consuming task to a more streamlined, essential component of modern IT management. With the ever-present threat of ransomware and other malware, BDR is no longer optional—it’s a necessity.

Trust Global CTI to bring exceptional knowledge and the highest customer service should a loss of data occur. We’ll help you and your team navigate the causes, and implications of each crisis and mitigate losses.
