Disasters aren’t always the biggest threat to your business; uncertainty often is. Many leaders assume they’ll know what to do when things go wrong. But without clarity on what’s critical to keep operations running, even minor disruptions can spiral.

That’s why successful business owners consider a business impact analysis (BIA) to be a foundational part of their business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR) strategy.

You might feel confident about your business continuity plan, but will it hold up when things actually go wrong? Our checklist outlines the essential elements every continuity and recovery plan should include. It helps you uncover what others often miss, like whether your team is clear on their roles.

In today's tech-driven world, cyberthreats are constant, and a simple backup is no longer a foolproof safety net. When disaster strikes, you need a comprehensive BCDR plan to keep your systems, people and processes protected and operational.

When your business grinds to a halt, every minute feels like a countdown. A server crash, ransomware attack or even a simple power outage can throw operations off track. That’s when the question hits hard: Can you bounce back quickly enough to keep customers and revenue safe?

It’s easy to assume backups are enough, but that’s only part of the picture.

Backups preserve data, but they don’t restore your systems, applications or processes. That’s the role of a business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR) plan. It’s the difference between having a backup of your data and having your entire business operational when things go wrong.

It’s good to have a safety net, but when it comes to cyber insurance, having a policy isn’t enough. Insurers want to see that your business is truly prepared with strong safeguards.

Our infographic outlines how an expert IT provider can enhance your cybersecurity posture throughout every stage of your insurance journey.

If you already have a proactive IT team, this will reinforce your confidence. If not, it highlights where improvements may be needed.

Cyberthreats are evolving fast, especially with the rise of AI-powered attacks. That's why a solid IT strategy is your first line of defense, while cyber insurance acts as your financial safety net when threats break through.

In this blog, we'll explore why combining a strong IT strategy with comprehensive cyber insurance isn't just smart—it's essential for protecting your business in today's AI-driven threat landscape.

Insurers don’t just want to see your signature on a form. They want proof that your business takes cyber risks seriously. Without basic protections in place, your application may not make it far.

Our cyber insurance readiness checklist shows you the security measures you need in place, from multi-factor authentication (MFA) to employee training to incident response. If your business already checks the boxes, you’re on the right track. If not, you’ll know exactly where to improve.

Cyberattacks rarely come with a warning, and when they hit, the damage can be fast and costly. From data recovery to managing the fallout, a single breach can derail your operations for days or weeks.

That’s where cyber insurance can step in to reduce the financial impact of an attack.

Many owners sign off on technical questions without fully grasping what they mean — and that can lead to serious gaps in coverage.

That’s why we recommend the SMB1001 framework — a practical, business-friendly approach to cyber readiness that’s quickly gaining popularity.
