SUMMARY:Next-Generation Disaster Recovery: Architecture\, Automation\, and Resilience
DESCRIPTION:Downtime is no longer a hypothetical risk. Ransomware\, cloud outages\, infrastructure failures\, and human error are now routine realities for today’s IT environments. The organizations that recover fastest aren’t just the ones with backups\, they’re the ones that have engineered resilience into their architecture from the start.Join ANM + WRITA for a technical webinar focused on designing layered\, cyber-resilient recovery strategies that integrate data protection\, network architecture\, disaster recovery orchestration\, and modern security frameworks. \n\n\n\nWhat You’ll Learn: \n\n\n\nKey building blocks for true resilience and rapid recovery\, including: \n\n\n\n\nSecure Data Protection across on-prem and cloud with immutable\, ransomware-resistant backups\n\n\n\nNetwork Resilience through high-availability design and automated failover\n\n\n\nDisaster Recovery Orchestration with application-aware runbooks and defined RTO/RPO targets\n\n\n\nCyber-Resilient Architecture aligned to NIST and Zero Trust principles\n\n\n\nContinuous Improvement through ongoing assessments and resilience roadmapping\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker:David AbbottDirector\, Data Center and Cloud | ANM \n\n\n\nSpeaker Bio:David Abbott is the Director of Data Center and Cloud at ANM\, where he leads strategies that help clients modernize infrastructure and optimize cloud performance. With extensive experience in data center architecture\, hybrid cloud solutions\, and IT transformation\, David focuses on delivering scalable\, secure\, and efficient technology environments that drive business outcomes. \n\n\n\nContact Information:Email: David.Abbott@anm.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/abbottmtn/
