As a business leader, self reflection is a critical part of growth and development. It allows us to examine our decisions, assess our strengths and weaknesses, and identify areas for improvement. As the world continues to evolve and change, it is more important than ever to take a step back and reflect on how we are managing our companies and navigating the challenges that come with leading in the modern age.

What would you do if your company suffered a tremendous disaster?

No one wants to think about the worst case scenario, but as leaders, it is our responsibility to be prepared for it. Whether it is a natural disaster, a cyber attack, or a financial crisis, it is crucial that we have a plan in place to mitigate the impact and protect our employees, customers, and business. In the event of a disaster, it is important to remain calm, assess the situation, and communicate clearly with all stakeholders. It is also crucial to have backup systems and data in place, as well as a plan to quickly recover and resume operations.

How are you evaluating your technology needs this quarter?

Technology plays a vital role in the success of modern businesses, and it is important to regularly assess your technology needs to ensure that we are staying ahead of the curve. This quarter, we recommend that our clients evaluate their current systems and infrastructure, identifying areas for improvement, and exploring new technology solutions that can help streamline operations and better serve our customers. We are also considering the importance of cybersecurity and data protection, and how technology needs can support these efforts.

What kind of BCDR plan do you have in place in the event of a cyber attack?

At DRP, we take the threat of a cyber attack very seriously and have implemented a comprehensive Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery (BCDR) plan for all of our Managed IT clients. Our BCDR plan includes regular backups of critical data and systems, as well as secure storage and offsite replication to minimize the impact of a potential cyber attack. We also have a dedicated team in place to quickly respond to any security incidents, assess the damage, and implement our recovery plan to ensure minimal downtime and disruption to our operations.

What percent of small businesses go out of business after a cyber attack?

The statistics are alarming – it is estimated that 60% of small businesses will shut down within six months of a cyber attack. This is a devastating outcome for the business owners, their employees, and the local community that depends on their services. It is crucial that small businesses take proactive steps to protect themselves from these threats and have a plan in place to quickly recover in the event of a cyber attack.

An example of a small business that recently had to shut down because of a ransomware attack and how devastating it was to their clients and local community.

Recently, a local small business that provided essential services to the community suffered a devastating ransomware attack. The attack resulted in the loss of critical data and the shutdown of their operations for several days. The impact of this attack was devastating for their clients and the local community, who were left without access to the services they relied on. This serves as a sobering reminder of the importance of cybersecurity and the need for small businesses to take proactive measures to protect themselves from these threats.
