BCP is the process of preparing for unexpected disruptions to ensure a business can continue operating during disasters, outages, or cyberattacks.
BCP ensures overall operations continue, while disaster recovery focuses on restoring IT systems and data after an outage.
A BCP includes risk assessments, recovery procedures, communication plans, backup strategies, and testing schedules.
At least annually, or after significant changes in staff, technology, or regulations.
Backups are a key part of disaster recovery. ACE ensures data is regularly backed up both onsite and in the cloud for quick restoration.
Healthcare, finance, government, and manufacturing often have compliance standards requiring BCP.
RPO (Recovery Point Objective): how much data you can afford to lose. RTO (Recovery Time Objective): how quickly systems must be restored.
Cloud backups provide redundant, offsite data storage accessible anytime, reducing downtime after disasters.
Yes. We run simulations and recovery tests to ensure your systems and teams are prepared for real-world events.
Cyberattacks, hardware failures, natural disasters, and human errors are top threats.
By preparing in advance, downtime is minimized — saving money on lost productivity, missed revenue, and recovery expenses.
Yes. Scalable solutions let small businesses protect themselves without large investments. ACE builds right-sized continuity plans.
HIPAA, PCI-DSS, SOX, and others mandate documented continuity and recovery strategies.
Events like floods, fires, and storms can shut down physical locations. Continuity planning ensures remote access and backup systems keep operations running.
Redundancy duplicates systems (e.g., extra servers). Resilience ensures processes continue despite failures. Both are key parts of continuity planning.
Yes. We coordinate with your critical vendors and partners to ensure continuity plans extend beyond your internal systems.
We use secure backups, rapid isolation, and tested recovery methods to get businesses back online without paying ransoms.
Tools include backup software, cloud recovery platforms, monitoring systems, and collaboration apps for communication during disruptions.
It depends on complexity, but most small to mid-sized businesses can complete planning within weeks.
