How to simplify disaster recovery: Shifting from preventative security to cyber resilience

Traditional cybersecurity operates on a simple premise: Keep cyberthreats out by building higher walls, adding more locks and deploying additional firewalls. But what happens when prevention fails? What happens when ransomware doesn't just breach your perimeter but spreads across your redundant systems, turning your backup infrastructure into a liability? The average ransomware claim now exceeds $1.18 million. For many organizations, that's not just a financial hit but a threat to their survival.

How Small Businesses Can Outwit Cybercriminals on a Limited Budget

Cybercriminals don't care about the size of your business. They care about the size of the opening you leave them. Small businesses face the same threats as Fortune 500 companies but typically operate with a fraction of the resources. The stakes feel impossibly high when 60% of small businesses in a US Chamber of Commerce survey named cyberattacks as their top concern. However, the news isn't all grim. Data breach costs fell 9% globally last year as organizations improved their speed at spotting and stopping attacks, reports IBM.

What Is RPO (Recovery Point Objective)? Meaning, Importance, and Best Practices

Every business expects smooth operations without any downtime and data loss. But that happens only in a perfect world. In the real world, systems go down and data gets lost, forcing teams to work on recovery plans. But how do recovery plans work? For that, it’s important to understand Recovery Point Objective (RPO), a key part of any disaster recovery or business continuity strategy.

What is RTO? Why Recovery Time Objective Matters for Businesses

A business experiences numerous threats daily. The survival of a business depends on how quickly it can resume its operations after incidents that compromise critical infrastructure or applications. Many companies face unexpected situations that cause service interruptions and generate system unavailability. They require rapid restoration to reduce the financial losses. Competition in the business world is fiercer than ever.

Enhancing Disaster Recovery for Red Hat OpenShift with CloudCasa and Red Hat OpenShift on AWS (ROSA)

Building resilient infrastructure is a must for modern organizations operating across hybrid environments. As applications move between on-premises and the cloud, ensuring data protection and continuity becomes a key priority. Red Hat OpenShift offers a consistent platform for running containerized and virtualized workloads across hybrid environments.

Disaster Recovery Plan Checklist: Building an Effective Strategy for 2026

Businesses around the world face unexpected disruptions ranging from cyberattacks to natural disasters. Data breaches have also become a pressing concern for companies worldwide, with the average cost of a breach reaching an all-time high of USD 4.45 million in 2023. Such events can cause catastrophic data loss and operational downtime. This is where a robust disaster recovery plan becomes more than a safety net, it’s a crucial element of business resilience.

Why Healthcare Needs DevOps Backup And DR Strategy

There is a critical speed-control paradox in the healthcare DevOps landscape: while DevOps best practices dramatically cut software delivery cycles, a lack of confidence in Disaster Recovery readiness, noted by Gartner, opens up room for fragile operations despite increased deployment speed. This gap demands a solution that adds reliability, such as comprehensive backup strategies, to ensure that faster development doesn’t compromise mission-critical systems ignited through DevOps platforms.

Building a Resilient Enterprise That Combines High Availability with Disaster Recovery

In today's hyper-connected digital economy, uptime is critical, and while downtime is inconvenient, it also poses a threat to reputation, revenue, and customer trust.Enterprises are expected to deliver seamless, uninterrupted services around the clock. But while many organisations invest heavily in high availability (HA) infrastructure, they often overlook the equally critical need for disaster recovery (DR). Because ensuring your systems are available is different from ensuring they are recoverable.

Microsoft 365 Disaster Recovery best practices

We can all agree that Microsoft 365 powers the daily operations of many modern organizations. These often include data critical for business continuity, which simply flows through Teams, OneDrive, and SharePoint; therefore, even a short service outage could negatively impact productivity or regulatory compliance. However, despite its importance, disaster recovery, or DR, for Microsoft Office is often misunderstood or assumed to be fully covered by Microsoft.

Contingency Planning: What's the Difference between Incident Response, Disaster Recovery, and Business Continuity?

Contingency planning is the process of determining how to respond to disruptive events. Most organizations are so dependent on IT resources, and most IT resources are so complex, interdependent, and attack prone, that contingency planning is essential to enable organizations to mitigate the likelihood, impact, and duration of disruptions to IT systems.
