Protect Your Business With a Robust Disaster Recovery Plan from RJ Cortel Ltd
In today’s always-on, data-driven world, IT systems aren’t just important — they’re business critical. Whether you’re a growing SME or a well-established company, an unexpected outage or cyberattack can grind your operations to a halt. That’s why having a disaster recovery (DR) plan isn’t just best practice — it’s essential.
At RJ Cortel Ltd, we help businesses prepare for the unexpected with tailored, secure, and scalable disaster recovery services that minimise downtime, reduce data loss, and get your business back online — fast.
Why Disaster Recovery Matters
What is a Disaster Recovery Plan?
Every year, thousands of UK businesses suffer IT disasters. Some are caused by cyberattacks like ransomware, while others stem from hardware failure, natural disasters, or human error. Regardless of the cause, the outcome is the same: downtime, data loss, and lost revenue.
In fact:
93% of companies without a disaster recovery plan go out of business within a year after a major data loss (source: FEMA).
The average cost of IT downtime is £4,000+ per minute for mid-sized companies.
Cyberattacks and ransomware are now the number one threat to business continuity in the UK.
Having a disaster recovery solution in place is your best insurance policy.
A Disaster Recovery Plan (DRP) is a documented, strategic set of procedures that ensures your systems, data, and infrastructure can be restored in the event of a disruption.
It includes:
Risk assessment and identification of potential threats
Backup strategies (cloud, off-site, real-time, or hybrid)
Recovery Time Objective (RTO) and Recovery Point Objective (RPO) planning
Failover infrastructure and virtualisation options
Communication procedures for stakeholders and teams
Testing and review schedule to keep your plan up to date
At RJ Cortel, we help you design, implement, and manage all of this — without the jargon.
