Maximizing Disaster Recovery and Security: Strategies, Insights, and Real-World Applications
What would you do if your business could only recover 25% of its critical applications in an emergency? 😲
In this podcast episode, Max Clark and Tara Kovaleski discuss a real-life challenge faced by a sizable healthcare organization. After new leadership evaluated their systems, they discovered a significant risk—only 25% of their mission-critical applications could be recovered quickly in the event of a failure. This realization pushed them to find a solution that would protect more applications, speed up recovery, and reduce manual processes that were slowing things down.
Tune in to hear how they tackled this problem and gain insights that can help safeguard your own organization’s recovery plan. Does your disaster recovery plan have the coverage you need? Let us know in the comments!
