Email continues to be the most relied upon business tool, and few organizations can do without it, even for short periods of time. Yet, email disruption is a reality that all IT and security teams must face. Email servers can fail, cyberattacks can occur, and business events, like a migration to the cloud, can result in planned - but still disruptive - downtime. The result can be financial loss, brand damage, and prolonged efforts to return to business as normal.
The ability to provide uninterrupted access to email while maintaining security protocols is an essential component of any business continuity or disaster recovery strategy.
