Business Continuity Planning That Actually Works

When disaster strikes—whether it’s a cyberattack, a power outage, or a hardware failure—your business needs more than luck to stay afloat. You need a plan. At STACK Cybersecurity, we help companies build business continuity strategies that are practical and secure.

Let’s walk through what that looks like, and how Datto SIRIS can make it easier to protect your data and bounce back fast.

Start with What Matters Most

Every business has a few core functions they can’t to go without. Maybe it’s your billing system, customer database, or your ability to process orders. Whatever it is, identify those critical operations and determine how disruptions could impact them. That’s your starting point.

Once you know what’s essential, you can prioritize protection and recovery efforts where they’ll make the biggest difference.

Build a Plan That’s Clear and Actionable

A good continuity plan doesn’t live in a binder collecting dust. It’s a living document that outlines exactly what to do when things go sideways. Who’s responsible for what? How will you communicate with your team and customers? What systems need to be restored first?

The more specific your plan, the faster your team can respond. And the less downtime you’ll face.

Simplify Recovery with Datto SIRIS

Datto SIRIS brings backup and disaster recovery together in one platform. It’s designed to work across physical, virtual, and cloud environments, so you don’t have to juggle multiple tools or vendors. You get fast recovery, strong security, and a single place to manage it all.

STACK Cybersecurity deploys Datto SIRIS appliances backed by expert support and maintenance. Whether you’re restoring a single file or virtualizing an entire server, SIRIS makes it fast and seamless.

Follow the 3-2-1 Rule

The 3-2-1 rule is a simple but powerful guideline: keep three copies of your data, stored on two different types of media, with one copy off-site. This approach protects you from hardware failures, ransomware, and even natural disasters.

Datto SIRIS makes this easy by automatically creating local and off-site backups in the Datto Cloud. Your data is stored securely across different locations and media, and you can virtualize systems instantly for rapid recovery.

Rely on the Datto Cloud for Resilience

The Datto Cloud is built for reliability. It uses an immutable architecture to prevent unauthorized changes to your backups, and it includes features like forced two-factor authentication (2FA), end-to-end encryption, and Cloud Deletion Defense™ to keep your data safe.

You can test your disaster recovery plan regularly, without extra fees, and rely on availability thanks to geographically distributed storage.

Why It All Matters

At the end of the day, business continuity is about confidence. Confidence that your data is safe. That your team knows what to do. That your systems will be back online quickly. And that your clients won’t even notice the disruption.

STACK Cybersecurity is here to help you get there. We’ll help you build a continuity strategy that’s secure and scalable.
