Businesses are facing an increasingly complex and severe threat landscape. Effective Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery (BCDR) strategies are crucial for mitigating these risks. A Business Impact Analysis (BIA) is essential for identifying critical business functions and developing strategies to maintain core services during crises. IT leaders play a vital role in enabling an effective BIA by providing technical insights and operationalizing recovery strategies. BIA involves identifying threat vectors, assessing the impact of downtime, defining Recovery Time Objectives (RTOs) and Recovery Point Objectives (RPOs), and prioritizing systems and data. This process helps organizations focus recovery resources where the risk is highest and the cost of downtime is greatest. Datto offers a unified platform for backup, disaster recovery, and business continuity, turning BIA insights into automated, repeatable recovery actions.
