• Publishers' Description

Although business continuity planning is often driven by natural disaster risks such as hurricanes, tornadoes, or even a potential bird flu pandemic, it's much more likely that your company's next "disaster" will actually be caused by a hardware failure or power outage. But no matter which scenario seems more probable, the bottom line is this: Your remote access solution will have to work flawlessly if you are to maintain business operations during a disaster or other disruption.

Check out this TechRepublic Webcast, now available on demand, to learn about a reliable and cost-effective approach to providing remote access that doesn't require you to buy, deploy, or maintain an expensive, appliance-based VPN. Hosted by James Hilliard, Moderator for TechRepublic, and featuring Positive Networks' Jason Sloderbeck, Director of Security and Service Delivery and Evan Conway, EVP of Channel Management, our discussion of remote access as it relates to business continuity planning highlights these important topics and more:

• Key considerations for your disaster recovery plan
• The pros and cons of the various DR solutions in use today
• How you can reduce the costs associated with disaster planning and recovery

As anyone who's ever gotten a "Maximum sessions reached" error can attest, having an unreliable VPN connection can be almost as frustrating as having no remote access at all. Such problems, of course, are only amplified during a natural disaster or other outage.

Fortunately, there's a new remote access alternative--a hosted, managed VPN service--that can provide reliable remote connectivity under both normal and extraordinary circumstances. So don't delay--listen to this TechRepublic Webcast, sponsored by Positive Networks and now available on demand--to learn more about this exciting new approach to providing remote access and what it can mean for your business continuity plan.
