Traditionally, discussions on disaster recovery have been the domain of large corporations with sizeable IT budgets. However small businesses are just as, if not more, in need of stringent plans to protect their assets from the unforeseen.<\/p><p>At Sparco, we\u2019ve observed a distinct correlation between the efficacy of a disaster recovery plan and a small business&#8217;s long-term resilience.

In reality, they may lack the redundancy and elaborate recovery processes that larger corporations have in place. The risk, therefore, is not only immediate but can be existential.<\/p><p>Furthermore, small business owners frequently cite the cost as a barrier to developing extensive disaster recovery plans.
