Lost business represented 38% OF THE OVERALL AVERAGE total breach costs and increased slightly from $1.52 million in the 2020 study. 2 3 Reasons DR is a Critical Component of the Modern Enterprise Disaster recovery is critical to business continuity Unfortunately, unplanned downtime and service outages are a normal part of doing business today. If left untreated, however, these issues can significantly impact revenue in a major way. 62% of outages that respondents classified as significant, serious, or severe cost more than $100,000 (an increase from 56% in 2020). 1 And it isn't just business operations alone that are affected. Unresolved disasters can also negatively impact how a brand is perceived by current and potential customers. This further impacts a company's bottom line through lost business due to negative perceptions of the organization's reliability, stability, and security. As part of the greater business continuity plan, DR plans that are well- defined and well-thought-out months in advance can help prevent gaps in operational availability and productivity. The domino effect that results in negative brand perception can be avoided altogether thanks to minimizing data loss, recovering operations, and getting back online with speed and efficiency. 1 1 Bizo, Daniel et al.
