Organizations must ensure business continuity for remote workers as many have shifted to decentralized work models due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Business continuity is crucial during disruptions like natural disasters or cyberattacks. Adequate planning includes incorporating technology, such as VPNs, to support remote work. Remote worker management and recovery strategies must be integrated into existing plans. Data centers should have capabilities to function without physical presence, allowing for cloud-based solutions and managed IT resources to facilitate continuity in service.
Managing business continuity without employees on-site can be a challenge for an organization that doesn't typically function remotely. The widespread shift to decentralized work models makes planning for remote work a necessity.
Business continuity is essential to keeping operations running in the event of a disruption, such as a natural disaster, power outage, cyberattack or network outage. Organizations still have the responsibility to ensure business continuity for all employees.
Tech support for remote workers is critical. The challenge of remote working is to balance technology with people management. Remote access to corporate systems is facilitated using a number of tried-and-true technologies, such as VPNs.
Fortunately, many data centers are designed to operate without human intervention or with remote access to system administration functions. Cloud-based vendors and managed service providers frequently deliver managed IT resources such as applications, data backup and other as-a-service offerings.
