Not Masters of Disaster
June 13, 2008
SAN ANTONIO, June 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Despite the man-made and natural disasters that are a reality today, many businesses are not fully prepared to maintain their business operations in the event of an emergency, according to an annual AT&T Inc. study on business continuity and disaster recovery preparedness for U.S. businesses in the private sector.
According to the report, one in five businesses does not have a business continuity plan developed. Additionally, for the third year in a row, the national survey finds that nearly 30 percent of U.S. businesses do not consider business continuity planning a priority.
For the seventh consecutive year, AT&T’s Business Continuity Study surveyed IT executives from companies throughout the United States that have at least $25 million in annual revenue to get their views on disaster planning and business continuity trends.
