Last year, Hurricane Ike highlighted the necessity of having a solid disaster recovery plan in place. Below are some interesting statistics regarding disaster recovery compiled by Janco Associates, Inc.

• 34 percent of companies took more than a day to recover after the hurricane.
• 10 percent of companies took more than a week.
• It took many firms up to 48 hours to reconfigure their networks.
• Many took days or weeks to re-enter lost data.
• 90 percent of companies that have experienced a computer disaster and do not have a survival plan go out of business within 18 months.

Disasters come in all forms, man-made and natural, including: weather, fire, security breach, malfeasance, earthquake and others.
