Hope is not a strategy! Disaster can strike any business, anywhere, and the vast majority of businesses are not prepared to recover. Most people think of disasters in terms of hurricanes, tsunamis, failing power grids, etc. . Yet the majority of data center disasters are not from natural causes. The more likely scenario is a lot less dramatic, but no less damaging . The vast majority of data loss is caused by computer hardware failure, software corruption, and human error. Even hacking, viruses and malicious harm are relatively rare compared to these very prosaic – and predictable – causes.
According to a recent Hughes survey, 80 percent of businesses suffering a major disaster go out of business in three years, while 40 percent of businesses that experience a critical IT failure go out of business within one year.
