IT departments of the Russian companies of the financial sector even more often face questions of business continuity of the organization. The expediency of investment of means into reservation is extremely topical issue for domestic business. Results of the research conducted by Linxdatacenter showed that the subject of business continuity has serious support from the management of the companies. An indicator of it is rather high percent (about 70%) of the companies having sponsorship of such initiatives at the highest level – owners of business and top management. At the same time it is important that 50% of the polled companies as a strategic objective of ensuring business continuity set recovery of business processes, and only 13% were limited to problems of recovery of IT services.
Interesting trend is that in the foreign companies ensuring business continuity does not fall within the scope of responsibility of IT, in most cases it is a task of the CEOs and risk management. In the Russian companies the return picture is observed that often reduces business support of projects.
Blackout, failure of operation of the IT equipment, telecommunication systems and also human factor and failures when updating IT systems were called the reasons of the most frequent risks causing failures in work of the companies. For their elimination 42% of the companies are going to resort to services of commercial DPC as reserve in the nearest future. 25% have own reserve center - naturally, more it belongs to large business. When choosing third-party DPC the companies so far first of all are guided by the cost of services and only then look at reliability level.
