5. Cost The Gap Repair Which bill would you rather pay? Prevention Backup Exec System Recovery 2010 5
In the 2009 SMB Disaster Preparedness Survey, Symantec found a large discrepancy between how SMBs perceive their disaster readiness and their actual level of preparedness. The data also suggests SMB downtime costs their customers tens of thousands of dollars each year. As a result, the findings show that SMBs can – and often do – lose business as a direct result of being unprepared for disasters. And according to a survey by Rubicon Consulting in 35% of SMBs have no server backup solution, are you in this category?
THE GAP is the difference between the cost of the Repair and the cost of the Prevention. Every business is going to be presented with one of these two bills in some form or other. The cost of the repair is always dramatically more expensive (money, time, reputation) than the cost of the prevention. One estimate puts the average cost to remediate a data breach at $6.7M for U.S. companies. Admittedly, this could represent the cost to a large enterprise, but what if it’s 10% - $670,000? Or 1% - $67,000? Still an enormous amount of money when compared to the cost of prevention.The cost of the repair also represents one of the base fears of a IT Director—that their systems would be compromised and the blame put on them for something they didn’t prepare for or account for. The PROBLEM lies in the nature of the threat. It’s quiet, it doesn’t announce its impending arrival. There are no sirens or bells. IT’S NOT A ROCK THROUGH THE WINDOW. Bottomline: too often it’s easy to ignore the danger when other things are clamoring for a businessperson’s attention. Technology salespeople can be accused of hyperbole sometimes, but not in this statement: 100% of the companies that need the Repair wish they had the Prevention in place the day before. Without Exception.If the VP of IT, IT Director, or even the Business Owner for small businesses fully understand The Gap, they will run to write the check for the Prevention.
