Could you rebuild your network from the ground up if a disaster demolished your facilities? Would you know where to start? Which components are critical to keeping your business running while you rebuild?

Disaster recovery planning for system failure or facility disaster is vital to ensure the continuity and survival of both your information and your business. A disaster recovery plan lays out a step-by-step guide to rebuilding your network. It uses the decisions made by management when the pressure of the disaster is not impeding the rebuild, and it takes into account the cost and availability of replacement hardware and software.

Mile High Networks evaluates your current plans, designs new plans, and provides recommendations to improve your organizational polices for disaster recovery. We can ensure that your data is protected by performing vulnerability testing; and prevent data exploitation so that you and your organization prevail over a calamity. Mile High Networks can design a plan to fit your organizational requirements for creating and maintaining a secure and safe environment in the event of a disaster-advance planning for system failure is critical for your technology infrastructure.

The main objectives of planning are the "three P's"

Protect-Ensure that all key systems are as secure and reliable as possible.

Prevent-Maintain a secure environment using security architecture "Defense-In-Depth."

Prevail-Establish your ability to respond efficiently and effectively when a disaster occurs, and to perform the plan successfully.

The three main objectives of recovery are the "three R's"

Risk-A thorough risk-assessment plan must include predictions of what most likely would happen in the event of a total or partial loss of your facility. A disaster can have a wide range of definitions-it can be something as common as an intruder, as straightforward as a flood, or as destructive as a fire.

React-A continuity plan is needed and should document how to implement the chosen recovery strategies in the time frame, and include scope requirements.

Recovery-Equipment and data should be recovered in order of priority. Off-site data storage is an essential component of any disaster recovery plan, therefore you should prepare backup procedures so that your most recent data-the information necessary to support your business-is recovered.

"As a young financial services organization, we spent little resources on network infrastructure. As we grew rapidly to 3 offices and over $100 million in loan originations, we needed a reliable solution quickly that did not tap current staff resources. We interviewed a dozen network solution providers/consultants and we were glad to select Mile High Networks. They came in and quickly became a reliable and trusted partner. They prepared a logical and efficient design and immediately began researching best price solutions without sacrificing the quality and security we needed. Once the network pieces began arriving Mile High Networks took ownership and started the installation process. All the while they documented and kept expectations in check. Lastly, they assisted in qualifying a candidate to be our in-house administrator (this of course after failed attempts at us trying to recruit Sue). They are dependable, knowledgeable and trustworthy. We will keep an ongoing relationship with Mile High Networks for as long as we have a network!"
