Who Needs Disaster Recovery?
Disaster recovery is not just for large organisations. Leading analysts have hard facts that point to two out of five businesses, of all sizes, that experience a disaster, go out of business within five years of the event.
Many companies believe a 'disaster' is a once in a lifetime incident. In fact, these incidents are very common with growing numbers of viruses, security breaches, software issues, hardware failures, data corruption & terrorist attacks. Thankfully, more catastrophic events such as weather related causes, fires, power interruptions & sabotage are exceptional, but the most successful companies, large or small, prepare themselves for all potential eventualities.

| Loss of Business/Customers | upto £1,000 | 23% |
| Loss of Credibility/Goodwill | £1,000 - £5,000 | 16% |
| Cash Flow Problems | £5,000 - £10,000 | 11% |
