How to Protect Your Business from the Inevitable Attack Without Breaking the Bank

  • Are you worried about the growing risks stemming from the evolving cyber threat landscape that will undoubtedly one day impact your business? 
  • Are you tired of paying for the high cost of your BC/DR provider to evaluate, procure, integrate, manage, and operationally maintain countless point solutions to protect your data, applications, and infrastructure?
  • For a reliable, cost-effective solution for ensuring business continuity and disaster recovery, look no further than Tehama. 

 

Don’t become a statistic

According to the 2021 Hourly Cost of Downtime survey by ITIC, over 90% of mid-sized and large businesses experience costs exceeding $300,000 for an hour of downtime. In the current cybersecurity landscape, businesses must have business continuity and disaster recovery (BC/DR) to prepare for the inevitable risk of cyber threats. 

Maintaining seamless operations without jeopardizing their data, applications, or reputation in the event of an outage or breach is a top priority. The challenges of providing highly available, secure access to data and applications for hybrid and remote workers is a constant risk for CISOs, IT security teams, and technology service providers. BC/DR is complex and challenging to deploy, requires a lot of time and money, and involves significant investments in infrastructure and personnel. 

 

A game-changing BC/DR ensures you don’t become a statistic

Tehama’s BC/DR is a game-changer, delivering an enterprise-level service regardless of whether you are a small, medium, or large enterprise.

Create an effective BC/DR plan

In order to ensure your BC/DR service is correctly aligned to your business objectives and risk profile, Tehama’s customer success organization collaborates with you to develop a detailed plan. The plan will include the following components:

 

1. Assess Risk.

A comprehensive risk assessment to identify vulnerabilities and potential threats to your data, application, and IT infrastructure. Prioritize these risks in terms of probability and impact.

2. Key Objectives and Metrics.

Establish Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) and Recovery Point Objectives (RPO). Determine acceptable downtime and potential data loss.

3. Data Backup Strategy.

Implement regular on-site and off-site backups.

4. Recovery Procedures.

Creating step-by-step recovery procedures and detailed runbooks for various disaster scenarios to guide you through the recovery process.

5. Infrastructure Redundancy.

Reducing instances of system downtime using failover systems and redundant data centers.

6. Communication Plan.

Keeping stakeholders informed during an incident by developing a communication plan with a chain of command and protocols.

7. Testing and Drills.

Regularly validating the plan’s effectiveness by conducting periodic drills and updating the plan based on findings.

8. Compliance and Documentation.

Align with industry regulations and update documentation according to standards such as GDPR and HIPAA.

 

Tehama’s managed service delivers your BC/DR plan uniformly across the enterprise, ensuring policy-based protection of data, applications, and users on the basis of your risk profile, prioritization, and potential impact on the business, whether reputational or financial. 

 

Workforce continuity

With Tehama’s BC/DR solution, hybrid and remote workers can return to work immediately following an incident. Users can quickly access their BC/DR failover (hot) virtual environment with just a few mouse clicks. This dedicated environment provides virtual workstations that are backed up and offer access to recover and continue end users’ work without any loss of data or productivity impact. The authentication process is completed within minutes, ensuring a seamless transition to the failover environment.

Beyond the Compliance Calendar: How the Enclave Model Transforms Subcontractor Risk, AI Adoption, and Competitive Positioning

CMMC SERIES · PART 3 OF 3 CMMC compliance has traditionally been framed as a cost of doing business. The organizations adopting a sovereign enclave strategy are discovering it can be something else entirely: a capability that accelerates contract pursuit, simplifies partner onboarding, and enables safer adoption of emerging technology. The first two posts in this series focused on the compliance architecture: why traditional network environments create sprawling assessment scope, and how Self-Custody Data Enclaves establish a cleaner, more defensible CUI boundary by design. This post was written before the Department of War’s July 13, 2026 announcement suspending CMMC Phase…

Your Enclave, Your Keys: The Self-Custody Model That Removes Vendor Trust from the Equation

CMMC SERIES · PART 2 OF 3 When the compliance boundary lives inside your own cloud tenancy, and you hold every encryption key, every audit log, and every identity credential, the relationship with your security vendor changes entirely, and so does your audit posture. In Part 1 of this series, we described why traditional network architectures create the Scope Trap: the compounding dynamic where CUI flows across shared systems, VPNs extend the enterprise perimeter to unmanaged endpoints, and a C3PAO assessor ends up evaluating a sprawling, fragmented environment that no organization can realistically harden to the standard CMMC Level 2…

The Scope Trap: Why Securing Everything Is the Wrong Strategy for CMMC

CMMC SERIES · PART 1 OF 3 Defense contractors are discovering that the biggest barrier to CMMC certification isn’t a missing security tool. It’s having a network that’s simply too large and too interconnected to audit cleanly. For organizations within the Defense Industrial Base (DIB), the shift to mandatory third-party CMMC assessments has exposed a problem that most security programs weren’t designed to solve. It isn’t a technology gap, exactly, and it isn’t a lack of investment; most defense contractors we work with have spent years and real budget building layered security environments. The problem is architectural. These environments, through…
