Disaster Recovery or Data Remediation?
Why compare Disaster Recovery and Data Remediation?
Disaster Recovery and Data Remediation have similar acronyms with similar meanings and similar circumstances. Corrupt data can be as damaging to a company’s existence as an incident involving physical impact. Using risk assessment tools and relevant remedies for the two eventualities offers cross benefits when operating parallel routines.
Questions to ask yourself
“What would happen if the computer systems failed by varying degrees – how would the company’s business continue”?
Similarly,
“What would happen if corrupt data had been entered to the ‘System’ (either inadvertently or with malice)?”
“How would the company be able to rely on historical precedent, without knowing the extent of the corruption?”
Pro-active risk assessment prevents disaster scenarios – re-active response to disaster events merely mitigates its impact
Employing rigorous testing programmes with a dedicated data remediation platform underpins confidence in a company’s primary asset, its data.
Data must remain accurate and errors dealt with quickly, therefore assessments need to be carried out regularly. Independent technicians can carry out ongoing maintenance routines. Those who use AI technology can deliver a cost and time efficient assessment.
Data risk profiling and the creation of a risk matrix are important data management tools. They can provide visual representation of impact scenarios from a financial and reputational perspective.
Identification of potential data weaknesses and resultant processing failures is the first step to reviving deteriorating businesses with the remediation and ongoing maintenance being the succeeding canons of success.
