The New Rules of Backup and Data Protection Jon William Toigo

More likely than not, your next disaster will be a data disaster. Having spent the past 50 years amassing unmanaged data and deploying it on poorly managed infrastructure, then working to make our data available via impossible-to-secure networks, our irreplaceable asset – our data – is at greater risk in 2013 than at any time in history.

 

The challenge is to create a data protection strategy that works to reduce risk of catastrophic loss, corruption and disclosure, using the right technologies, and that is sustainable over time.

Brand new for 2013, The New Rules of Backup and Data Protection combines two of our most popular seminars (Next-Gen Backup School & Disaster Recovery for the 21st Century) into one full-day educational experience where attendees can get all the info they need into the tools and best practices that will bring their data backup and disaster recovery plans to the next level.

A healthier diet for disaster recovery

Some upfront planning and a handful of non-proprietary products can make disaster recovery a whole lot easier.

A while back, I found myself giving a dinner presentation on disaster recovery (DR) and data protection to an enthusiastic (and apparently quite hungry) group of IT operatives at a steakhouse in Calgary, Alberta.
