Technology leaders in government are responsible for providing disaster recovery preparedness, maintaining standards for compliance, security and truly understanding what it means to be capable of operating “business as usual” in a worse case disaster scenario. Whether the threat is internal like a virus or human error, or external in the case of Mother Nature, a well designed and tested business continuity plan will be able to support the organization through the unexpected outages. ThinkGard is committed to the Public Sector industry and to public safety technology leaders who serve the communities across the US.
