4 Things to Consider When Developing a Business Continuity Plan
Many businesses that lose access to their data never reopen their doors. Even when businesses lose some data but avoid a total outage, their employee productivity, customer satisfaction, and company reputation can plummet. This means that service providers have a moral obligation (in addition to their profit motive) to make sure that their customers have a well-structured business continuity plan. Business continuity is the process of making sure business information services are resilient enough to withstand accidental, intentional, or natural disruptions to their data. Sometimes, the business continuity issue is simply human error – someone deletes a key file from a system, causing it to break. Other times, device failures and even natural disasters will necessitate the launch of a business continuity plan.

Keeping up with these threats is becoming a full-time job, and it’s imperative that we do whatever it takes to keep our data safe. With each week looking slightly different from the last, what tech headlines did you miss?

Alex Tapscott: Blockchain Will Impact Consumers in Every Industry
Frank Jablonski, Acronis Vice President of Global Product Marketing, talks about blockchain with Alex Tapscott, a co-author of Blockchain Revolution: How the Technology Behind Bitcoin Is Changing Money, Business, and the World. Alex Tapscott: Blockchain technology started in the world of financial services, and it’s unsurprising, because in many respects, every part of the industry is due for some form of reinvention. Financial services were really just a start. But what I think blockchain’s lasting legacy will be is the impact that it will have on every single company and the nature of the firm in the future. Because what blockchain does in many respects, is reducing the transaction cost and the need for trust in interactions in business between different entities, whether it’s consumers and companies, or companies and companies, or companies and somebody else. And that’s going to mean a big change to a lot of different industries.

Malware is taking advantage of existing vulnerabilities and if we don’t start upping our security game, our data will be increasingly at risk. What threats are headed your way?

The robots are coming, the robots are coming!
