Unexpected disruptions, whether from cyberattacks, natural disasters, or system failures, can bring business operations to a standstill. That’s why business continuity planning (BCP) is essential. As a Managed Service Provider (MSP), Commercial Networks plays a critical role in keeping your business up and running, no matter what challenges arise.
What is Business Continuity Planning (BCP)?
Business continuity planning is the process of developing strategies to ensure critical business functions continue during and after a disruption. A solid BCP includes data protection, disaster recovery, and contingency plans that enable businesses to minimise downtime, reduce financial losses, and maintain service delivery.
