Backup and disaster recovery software developer Paragon Software Group (PSG) has launched its Business Recovery and Continuity (BRC) Planning Service.
The addition of the BRC Planning service extends Paragon’s ability to offer SMBs disaster preparation and mitigation tools. Moreover, the new offering enables SMBs to better prepare to meet the standards of such regulatory bodies as Sarbanes-Oxley and HIPAA.
“We have been providing the technology and processes enabling effective business continuity for years,” says Daniel Eickhoff, Paragon’s director of channel sales. “Formalizing the portfolio into a comprehensive service offering is a natural extension for Paragon.”
As part of the BRC Planning Service, Paragon’s specialists will design a comprehensive “best practices” BC/DR plan for staff to follow during a disaster.
BRC Planning Service highlights include:
- Onsite departmental interviews.
- High-level risk assessment.
- Full review of the current plan.
- Gap analysis.
- New-plan development.
- Onsite tabletop exercise.
- Employee training.
To help companies improve their disaster preparedness, Paragon Software is extending a free one-hour phone consultation with one of Paragon’s DR planning consultants along with a checklist for a self-assessment of the company’s current BC/DR plan. The offer runs through the end of 2012.
