The healthcare industry faces unique challenges with Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity. Healthcare organizations provide critical services to local communities, and are many of the first responders during a regional disaster.
First in the minds of many DR planners, CIO’s and IT staff is the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, otherwise known as HIPAA.
Many financial institutions are required to comply with certain regulations, mandates and policies designed to provide protection and confidence to investors. These and other regulations/acts are monitored by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
In order to comply with these regulations, while also considering cost-efficiency and the importance of Business Resiliency, financial institutions establish Business Continuity Plans (BCP) to satisfy these important variables.
Faced with a disaster or business interruption, the banking industry has unique responsibilities. It is vital that customers have access to their money at all times, especially in an emergency situation, so a disaster at the bank cannot cause business to cease.
Limited or lost capabilities within banks can cause great strain on the local economy, preventing customers from completing necessary transactions. Rentsys Recovery Services can provide a safety net for banks and their customers in need of relief.
Business Continuity takes on many definitions when specified to the energy industry. A variety of constituents have dependences on energy providers. Energy providers recovery needs are vast and complex, from corporate, to executive, to field, consumer and even environmental.
A delay in response can create significant losses of revenue/ profits, reduction in production, and/or concerns based on public perceptions. No energy provider wants to become the lead story on the evening news because a family was left without basic utilities or lack of fuel.
