Business continuity and disaster recovery efforts go hand in hand in this digitized world of ours.

More organizations are turning to vendors that provide unified BCDR, which includes backup and disaster recovery and ransomware safeguards as well as disaster recovery as a service, due to the growing amount of data as well as the increasing number of highly sophisticated cyber-attacks taking place against businesses of all sizes.

What data and applications are critical to ensure business productivity?

Backup and disaster recovery solutions with offsite immutable storage and DR services tend to be a good fit because the environment can be quickly spun up in the case of a critical system failure or cyber-attack.

More organizations are turning to vendors that provide dark web monitoring to reduce the risk of account takeover attacks before they happen, immutable cloud storage to make backups untouchable, and disaster recovery as a service to eliminate downtime.

These new requirements include critical audits and tests that businesses must comply with in order to restore their data and receive a payout after an attack-which can slow down the recovery process.
