Ark-La-Tex Storm Season: 3 BCDR Blind Spots Businesses Often Miss

As storm season continues here in the Ark-La-Tex, it’s easy to think you’re covered with ‘a backup.’ But true Business Continuity goes deeper. Are you overlooking these common blind spots?

Untested Recovery Plans: You have a backup, but have you recently performed a full restore test? Verifying you can actually recover data quickly and efficiently is non-negotiable. Don’t wait for a real disaster to find out your plan has holes. When was your last successful test?

Communication Blackouts (Internal & External): If primary lines are down in Shreveport or your team in East Texas can’t access the office, how do you communicate with employees? With customers? A pre-defined crisis communication plan using multiple channels (VoIP rerouting, SMS alerts, social media updates) is vital.

Remote Work Security Gaps: When a storm forces remote work, are your team’s connections and devices secure? Disasters are prime time for cyberattacks. Ensure VPNs, MFA, and endpoint security are robust and universally applied. Addressing these now can save immense headaches later.
