Evolve CEO urges system appraisals in wake of IT outages

The global IT outage is a 'timely reminder' that operational resilience should be at the forefront of the business agenda, according to Evolve CEO Alan Stephenson-Brown.

"Demonstrating that even large corporations aren't immune to IT troubles, this outage highlights the importance of having distributed data centres and rerouting connectivity that ensures businesses can continue functioning when cloud infrastructure is disrupted," he stated.
 
"By prioritising both contingency planning and preventative measures, IT systems can be protected. I urge business leaders to seriously appraise the systems they have in place to identify potential vulnerabilities before they find themselves the subject of the next IT outages headline."
