What Will Happen to Your Data Security in Case of a Disaster?

“DATA LOSS CAUSED BY NATURAL DISASTERS CAN BE PREVENTED WITH UNINTERRUPTED SATELLITE BROADBAND SOLUTIONS.”

In the age of communication, all trade data transfer and 98% of this data is done over the internet. Data transfer between two points is done most easily and economically with broadband cable or fiber internet. The fastest data transfer will mean good performance for businesses. Unfortunately, this communication is lost due to geographical ruptures and destructions in case of a DISASTER. All equipment connected to the earth is damaged and ceases to function. The solution is very distant areas from the earth, namely satellite communication systems.

All technologies that work without the internet, namely without the transfer of data, are shut down after a DISASTER. And it requires urgent action. This urgent action will take a very long time and will be difficult to physically implement in case of a DISASTER. Cables are broken, poles are torn down, roads are closed. However, gas stations should work, banks should continue their work and all AFAD officers should communicate with each other. For this reason, keep in mind that equipment installed on the globe will not work for a while. These systems can only be activated immediately if satellite broadband systems are put into operation as soon as possible.

At least 20% of the data lost during a disaster never comes back. Establishing the fastest communication will bring the least loss. Therefore, fast internet systems and VSAT applications should be kept ready. Now, it can be stored ready for a usable DISASTER moment and employees can be trained to activate these systems during a DISASTER.

If you do not have emergency VSAT kits to be activated, it means that an average of five days of data will be lost. This means that the information that will not come back will be lost due to precautions not taken in advance. When this period reaches ten days, that is, if a company of any size cannot access its data for ten days, it will cause irreparable problems and even bankruptcy may occur.

The cost of the VSAT systems to be stocked now is only the purchase cost of the product. You may not necessarily need to use capacity from the satellite. In the event of a DISASTER, all operators open emergency satellite internet capacity to the region with all possible means. The existence of the capacity in these satellites will turn into a benefit after the installation of the systems you have and the installation of broadband internet from the satellite.

TUYAD has been providing training on the installation and commissioning of VSAT satellite broadband systems since 2009 and has distributed 7000 training certificates to date. These trainings cover the installation and commissioning of systems. The training is provided on a voluntary basis and participants are given a VSAT satellite communication installation certificate in case of a disaster.

IS YOUR BUSINESS READY FOR A DISASTER?

As TUYAD; we provide training and prepare to put systems into operation. You can also stock VSAT systems and complete your personnel training to put them into operation in case of a DISASTER.

The general perception is that all important business data can never be recovered during a natural disaster or that clear information will no longer be available as before. This perception can only be eliminated by processing the data uninterruptedly and accessing the data uninterruptedly or as soon as possible.
Natural disasters pose a permanent and devastating threat to data, the biggest reason for data loss is the long-term interruption of access and the inability to update the data. Natural disasters are all factors that shake the globe regionally and cause physical destruction. The most important of these and the one that threatens our region the most is the earthquake threat. In the recent earthquake, it was observed that our companies were not ready for this destructive natural movement, banks, gas stations and all institutions were cut off from communication with each other, and data losses were at their peak.

Although we do not have specific data on which natural disasters cause the most data loss, we know that all disasters can occur in many different ways. Rain, hurricanes, tornadoes, blizzards, severe storms, fires or avalanches will prevent short-term or long-term data communication. The biggest disaster, an earthquake, will cause data to be interrupted for a longer period of time and may cause data loss. The definitive solution is to have a satellite internet system ready and put it into operation as soon as possible.

Not only data security, but also the communication of public institutions, the provision of assistance, and the access of correct information to various institutions and organizations at the time of assistance will be possible with VSAT satellite systems.
Internet will be required for the processing of your data to the clouds and the information recalled, and this uninterrupted broadband internet will be provided by the satellite communication system thanks to the satellite dishes to be installed in any open area.
In a disaster, you should have a different plan than the current situation.
The protection of the physical structure will be possible only with satellite technologies in space, which will not cause any problems during a disaster.

VSAT satellite systems are a suitable technology for all professionals in our age. It is necessary to stock equipment and ensure that all employees are trained in putting this system into operation. As TUYAD, we have been providing this service free of charge since 2009. You can get detailed information about the subject by contacting the association center.
