Contrary to what one might imagine, there are several occurrences that can cause problems to the proper functioning of a business. The September 11th tragedy in New York, for example, impacted the entire world in several ways and showed that companies need to be concerned even with the unthinkable.
Furthermore, in 2015, for example, Brazil faced problems with its finland mobile database supply. This was a somewhat unusual situation that, as it lasted longer than expected, could put different IT services at risk.
Therefore, a good disaster recovery plan should consider different types of threats – even if they seem unlikely. Check out some examples of “disasters”:
Natural disasters (earthquakes, floods and other problems caused by climate issues);
Human error;
Robberies;
Cyber attacks, such as malware or ransomware;
Power outages;
Industrial accidents;
Epidemics or pandemics;
Terrorist or biochemical attacks;
Accidents or failures with equipment.
