Disaster Recovery & Business Continuity
Trends, Case Studies and Success Factors
Webinar Track
 Since man-made and natural disasters can strike any where at any time, DR preparedness and continuity planning often determine whether a business survives or fails. The question remains, are you fully prepared to handle the worst?
In these webinars, we'll explore trends and best practices, such as outsourcing disaster recovery to managed service providers, leveraging cloud computing to offsets costly DR infrastructure, using server vitualization to automate disaster recovery capabilities and desktop virtualization as workforce continuity planning tool, using a unified communication interface to support communication during a disaster, and complying with new standards like the Department of Homeland Security's Voluntary Private Sector Preparedness Accreditation and Certification Program.
All corporate member attendees can receive a Certificate of Completion for Continuing Professional Education (CPE) credit.
