‘Disaster Recovery’ Becomes Popular Method of
Protection Among Local Businesses
IT Strategies International Assists Companies in Developing Plans to Protect Valuable Data

(Las Vegas) – As more businesses take ‘disaster recovery’ measures by storing critical information and data in collocation centers, Las Vegas-based IT Strategies is facilitating the processes by developing comprehensive plans for them.

Businesses are turning to the off-site collocation centers for a variety of reasons, according to Verner Dixon Jr., vice president of sales and marketing for IT Strategies. The reasons include fear of terrorism attacks, and protection from fires and flooding. Many companies in California also use collocation centers outside the state in case of earthquakes.

“Especially in today’s world, many businesses, like banks and hospitals, are moving forward with efforts to find extra protection for their critical data,” Dixon said. “Creating solid disaster recovery plans is a crucial element in pursuing this avenue and thwarting disruption of the workplace.”

Verner said IT Strategies consultants develop plans and analyses customized to businesses before they bring their computer servers with critical data to off-site facilities. The consultants handle everything from researching the market for appropriate collocation center locations to determining which records are critical to developing full-blown disaster recovery plans.

“This is the wave of the future and allows business executives to feel secure that their company information and their customer information is protected in the utmost manner,” Dixon said.
