Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery Planning for SMEs

Disasters — from ransomware to hardware failure — can cripple an unprepared business. Business continuity and disaster recovery (BC/DR) planning keeps you running when things go wrong.

Start with Backups

Follow the 3-2-1 rule: three copies of data, on two media, with one offsite. Test restores regularly — an untested backup is a hope, not a plan.

Define RTO & RPO

• RTO (Recovery Time Objective): how quickly you must be back up.
• RPO (Recovery Point Objective): how much data you can afford to lose.

Plan for Cyber Incidents

Include ransomware response, communication plans, and CERT-In reporting obligations in your BC/DR plan.
