This ComputerWeekly.com webinar video provides a short preview on the vital need for business continuity strategies at small- to medium-sized businesses (SMBs).
The need for all firms to have an effective business continuity strategy has been highlighted by the recent terrorist bomb attacks and the Buncefield disaster. However the business interruption caused by everyday threats such as an unplanned power outage, or a server failure, could be just as significant.
For SMBs who do not have the resources of larger enterprises, the ramifications of not being prepared for a 'lights going out' event could be business threatening. In addition to understanding the strategic and technological issues associated with business continuity, IT managers at SMBs also need to know how to justify why their company needs to make a business critical investment.
As part of the webinar, viewers are invited to submit their questions to a panel of 3 experts, which are then answered live. This preview video, filmed and broadcast live last year, includes questions such as:
How to get board level buy-in to make an investment in business continuity systems
How often should business continuity strategy be tested?
How appropriate is it to use a 3rd party supplier to manage business continuity requirements?
How can SMBs plan for large scale disasters when larger companies fail?
Joe O'Halloran, Project Editor for ComputerWeekly.com introduces the panel, Robin Gaddum from IBM, Clive Longbottom from Quocirca and Jamie Moss from Alcon UK who provide answers to the questions submitted.
