Disaster recovery plans for small businesses | Guest Eric Sugar

ProServeIT President Eric Sugar discusses disaster recovery planning for small and medium businesses. This is an excellent add-on episode to our third episode from way back in 2018 when Keatron Evans discussed the work of an incident responder. If your small- or medium-sized company suffers an incident, whether a breach or a ransom or just a power failure, the first thing you’re going to hope is that you have a disaster recovery plan already written and sitting in the CEO’s locked desk drawer. If not, it’s time for you to prepare and breathe easier.0:00 - Disaster recovery planning for small businesses3:12 - Eric Sugar’s start in cybersecurity 4:40 - Working at ProServeIT6:40 - Working as president of ProServeIT9:07 - What is a small or medium cybersecurity business?10:50 - How to have a disaster recovery plan14:05 - Customize your disaster recovery plan16:40 - Prioritized your disaster recovery plan18:10 - How to choose potential disasters21:28 - Examples of disaster recovery plans26:20 - Education and skills needed to work in disaster recovery31:40 - A good resume for disaster recovery35:10 - Getting promoted in discovery recovery  37:33 - What is ProServeIT?41:16 - Learn more about Eric Sugar and ProServeIT41:34 - Outro– Get your FREE cybersecurity training resources: https://www.infosecinstitute.com/free– View Cyber Work Podcast transcripts and additional episodes: https://www.infosecinstitute.com/podcastAbout InfosecInfosec’s mission is to put people at the center of cybersecurity.
