When it comes to a disaster or cyberattack affecting an SMB, it’s more a matter of when than if. According to The 2018 State of SMB Cybersecurity report released by the Ponemon Institute, 67 percent of SMBs have been victims of cyberattacks or data security breaches. However, only 28 percent of SMBs rate their strategy to mitigate attacks and vulnerabilities as “highly effective.”
The number of cyberattacks on SMBs alone presents a valuable opportunity for MSPs to offer data backup and recovery as a service. However, the challenge lies in providing a personalized solution that suits the specific needs of each SMB. As an IT executive at an MSP, you should incorporate the following five best practices when building disaster recovery strategies for your clients: 
- Harness the Power of Automation
- Use Cloud Technology

- Set Appropriate Priorities
- Set a Retention Policy
- Perform Tests
