H is for Hybrid Cloud Backup — With a hybrid solution, a company’s essential data is backed up locally and is replicated off-site, providing additional data security.  In most cases, three distinct copies of each file exists – on the workstation or server, on the local device and in the public cloud.

S is for Screenshot Backup Verification — This technology tests backup integrity at prescribed intervals and proactively identifies bootability issues. The resulting screenshots can be sent to the user in an email. Make sure your BDR solution has it!

V is for Virtualization — The process of simulating a hardware platform, operating system, storage device or network resource.  In relation to business continuity, virtualization means the ability to create a copy of a file or system in the cloud.  This enables a business to continue operations in lieu of a technical or natural disaster.
