Why Do You Need DRC? Get to Know Disaster Recovery Center with IDCloudHost

Do you know about Disaster Recovery Center (DRC) thoroughly? If not, it is important for you to read this article to understand more about DRC. Nowadays, many companies or agencies are starting to realise the importance of protecting data and maintaining business continuity in the event of a disaster.?

Why is that? Because data loss can happen at any time, even due to human error or viruses such as malware or ransomware, as well as unpredictable natural disasters. Therefore, many companies or agencies are starting to have DRC for their business so that they no longer worry about losing important data or business operations being hampered. In this article, we will discuss DRC in detail.

What is a Disaster Recovery Center (DRC)?

A Disaster Recovery Center (DRC) is a system designed to recover data and applications that have been deleted or damaged due to natural disasters or other technical disruptions. DRCs typically consist of a number of servers connected to the internet that have the ability to store data and applications continuously. The purpose of a DRC is to ensure business continuity for a company or agency, so that operations are not interrupted due to the loss of crucial data.

DRCs can be implemented in various ways, depending on the needs of the company or agency. One common approach is to store copies of data and applications on a DRC server located in a different location from the main server. In the event of a natural disaster or technical disruption, the DRC server will immediately take over and recover any deleted or damaged data and applications, allowing the company or agency to continue its operations without disruption.

In addition, DRCs can also be implemented as a service called Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS). DRaaS is a service offered by providers that allows companies or agencies to use DRCs without having to own their own servers. Companies or agencies simply pay a fee to the provider for the DRC service, and the provider takes care of all DRC needs directly. With DRaaS, companies or agencies can more easily manage DRCs without having to worry about the technical issues involved

What are the Benefits of DRC for Companies?

The following are some benefits of a Disaster Recovery Center (DRC) for companies:

• Ensure business continuity: DRC helps companies to continue operating even in the event of a natural disaster or unexpected technical disruption that causes data or applications to be deleted or damaged. This means the company will not be disrupted in its operations and can remain focused on its main activities.
• Prevent crucial data loss: DRC stores copies of data and applications continuously, so that data lost due to unexpected disasters or technical disruptions can be restored immediately. This means the company will not lose crucial data and can continue to run its business smoothly.
• Improving data security: DRC stores data and applications on a server that is separate from the main server, so the data is not exposed to the same security risks. This means companies can avoid the risk of data loss due to hacker or virus attacks.
• Ease the burden on IT: DRC helps companies manage and store data and applications, which can lighten the burden on IT. Companies can focus on their main activities without having to worry about technical issues related to data and applications.
• Improve operational efficiency: DRC allows companies to manage data and applications more efficiently, which can smooth company operations. This means companies can increase productivity and reduce operating costs.

With its experience, IDCloudHost is a legal and trusted cloud service provider with a Disaster Recovery Center in Indonesia. Currently, DRC is most needed by the financial or banking sector.

Presidential Regulation 95 of 2018 concerning Electronic-Based Government Systems (SPBE) in article 40 paragraph 1 also explains that SPBE security includes ensuring confidentiality, integrity, availability, authenticity, and non-repudiation of resources related to data and information, SPBE infrastructure, and SPBE applications. Paragraph 4: Guaranteeing availability as referred to in paragraph 1 is carried out through the provision of backup and recovery.

Thus, companies must immediately take preventive action to fulfill these government regulations. Set up your company DRC with IDCloudHost!
