1. No Business is Immune
from Downtime
SMBs Are at
Increased Risk
2. The Perfect Data Storm
• More data being created
– Amount of data being stored is more than
doubling every two years1
• Value of data is increasing
– Analytics and big data increase
the value of business data
• Greater risk of losing data
– From disaster, to server failure,
to security breach, to new Ransomware
viruses like Cryptolocker

3. Evaluate Your Risk
Not a question of if, but when.
• 25% of PCs will fail this year.1
• 24% of companies said they
experienced a full data disaster.2
Is it worth the risk,
to be unprepared?
• 70% of small businesses that
experience a major data loss
go out of business within a year.3

4. Recovery Time Objective (RTO)
How long can your business
be down without it affecting
your bottom line?
• Seconds
• Minutes
• Hours
• Days
• Never
5. SMBs are at Greater Risk
• Fewer resources to prevent data disaster
• Limited resources to combat disaster
• Can’t afford to lose valuable data
• Can’t afford to not produce revenue
• Loss of competitive edge
• Negative impact on reputation
• Negative impact with customers
• Potential regulation non-compliance
6. Downtime is a Business Concern
• Unplanned downtime may be an IT function, but it is a business concern.
• Average midsize company has 16 to 20 hours of network, system
or application downtime per year.1
• Many compliance regulations,
like HIPAA, require a data backup
and data recovery plan.2

7. Protecting Your Data is
Protecting Your Business
• Do you have business insurance?
– For your building?
– For your employees?
– Why not your business data?
• Odds are you’ll use your backup
and disaster recovery solution
before you’ll use your insurance.
8. Prepare Now, Save Later
• Regardless the source of unplanned downtime, it will cost your
business money.
• “Our client did not have an interruption
in service, the cost savings to them was easily in the tens of
thousands.”
MSP DCNC, Inc. regarding a law firm client who
experienced server failure, but had a backup and
disaster recovery solution in place.
9. Don’t Prepare, Pay Later
Cost to recreate
20 Megabytes of data1:
• Sales data = $17,000
• Accounting data = $19,000
• Engineering data = up to $98,000
• Medical data = ?
1. National Computer Security Association
10. Cost of Downtime (COD):

will cease; billing, HR, intranet, etc.
• Lost sales revenue; sales will
have no access to customer or
product data
• Lost employee productivity; no
systems to keep them working
• No communication; no email
• Cost to restore IT systems
• Materials lost/disposal and
cleanup costs
• Financial impact of customer
dissatisfaction
• Contract penalties
• Compliance violations, if applicable
• Upstream and downstream value-
chain ripple effects

Traditional Backup Intelligent Business Continuity
Recovery can take weeks following a disaster
Recovery is reduced to hours, minutes, or even
seconds
High risk for human error Full automation backup process
Difficult to test if backup is working properly
Screenshot backup verification; easy to test
backup
Expensive and timely to make multiple backups
Each backup is saved in local appliance and
bi-coastal data centers
Backup speeds are slower
Backup speeds are fast; Critical data can be
prioritized
Physical to virtual conversions can be time
consuming and have a high failure rate
Incremental backups can be instantly virtualized,
rather than the entire backup chain
No redundant backups in multiple locations
Automatic redundant backup, allowing your
business to run off the secure cloud in event of a
disaster
Limited options for encrypting data, may not pass
industry regulations (i.e., HIPAA, SOX)
AES 256 and SSL key-based encryption ensures
data is safe and meets industry regulations (ie.
HIPAA, SOX)
When recovering data, tape failure rate exceeds 50% Minimal risk of corrupted backups or data loss
Potential for theft Off-site backups stored in SSAE 16 data centers
14. The One-Two Punch

More data is being created and stored, by companies of all sizes. Data will continue to grow at rates from 11% to 40% annually (Enterprise Strategy Group). Amount of data could grow by 50 times by 2020. (IDC)
SMBs are part of the “big data” wave. It really just means smarter use of their data, in turn making it more valuable.
For SMBs, their data is their lifeline.
However, there are more and more threats to a business’ data. Not just big headline grabbing natural disasters like Hurricane Sandy, but the day-to-day data loss disasters caused by malware, server failure, and power outages
Aging equipment and more security risks will drive more data failure and potential data loss for businesses of all sizes, particularly small business.
95% of companies experienced an unplanned data center outage in the past two years. (Ponemon Institute)
SMBs are much more susceptible to IT failure. Systems aren’t set up beforehand, data is not properly backed up, and not prepared to restore data.
Average cost of downtime for a midsize company is $70,000 per hour. (Gartner Group)
You wouldn’t consider running your business without insuring your employees or the physical components. For example, you have have insurance for the physical desktops in case they get stolen, but what about the more valuable data that it contains?
Most business liability insurance policies do not cover data loss.
As Benjamin Franklin put it, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.”

It’s often not possible to recreate medical data; with the current regulations a violation would cause audits and penalties that would throw most practices into bankruptcy.
