Lack of a Disaster Recovery Plan
One of the biggest mistakes companies make is not taking
DR seriously and failing to allocate sufficient resources and
attention to the process.
Many businesses have a DR plan wholly inadequate for their needs or
fail to have one. Organizations believe disasters are unlikely to happen
or the impacts will be minor and therefore do not invest the time,
money and effort required. However, such complacency is dangerous,
as disasters can occur anytime and have far-reaching consequences for
the unprepared.
Additionally, there often needs to be clarity about what constitutes
a DR plan. Many assume that data backup and disaster recovery
are interchangeable. While both are critical components of business
continuity, it is essential to note that they are NOT the same.
