2A Few Questions
- What communication challenges have you
experienced during a business disruption? - 2. Do you know how would you
- Communicate with groups of employees, critical
personnel and emergency teams instantly across
multiple locations, without power or a landline,
and while away from the office? - Access your company's Business Continuity
/Disaster Recovery Plan and log in incidents in
real time from any location? - Manage, reboot and conduct diagnostics on servers
from a remote and safe location? - Instantaneously reach federal, state and local
government agencies to coordinate
recovery efforts?
3Driving Business Continuity Effectiveness
Nasdaq CIO Steve Randich, during the 2003 North
East Blackout Neither of his other phones
worked. The stampede of users trying to make
calls had clogged their networks. What would
Randich have done without the two-way digital
radio service? "I don't even want to think
about it," he says. "It would have been pretty
bad"
