Business Continuity + Fractional CISO


Diversified Tech Solutions  ·  Security & Business Continuity When Something Goes Wrong,
Does Your Business Keep Running?
Most small businesses have no written plan for ransomware, hardware failure, or data breach — and no security leadership keeping those risks in check. These two services close both gaps.
Business Continuity Planning Disaster Recovery Fractional CISO HIPAA · GLBA · ABA Compliance
The Gap Most Businesses Have You’ve Handled the Hardware. Have You Handled the Plan? Secure data destruction protects you at end-of-life. These services protect you while your systems are actively running — and when they fail.
🔒 No Written BCP

HIPAA, GLBA, and most cyber insurance policies require a written Business Continuity Plan. Most small practices don’t have one.

⚠️ No DR Plan

A disaster recovery plan tells your team exactly what to do when systems fail. Without it, recovery takes 3× longer and costs 5× more.

🛡️ No Security Leadership

A CISO reviews your security posture, trains your staff, and catches vulnerabilities before they become incidents. Most small businesses can’t justify a full-time hire.

💸 Ransomware Risk

Average ransomware recovery cost for small businesses: $200,000+. Businesses with a tested DR plan recover in days. Those without it may not recover at all.


Service 1 Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery Planning A written, compliance-ready BCP and DR plan that tells your team exactly what to do when systems fail, data is compromised, or operations are disrupted — and documents it for your auditor, insurer, and attorney.
What the Deliverable Contains A Document You Can Hand to an Auditor
Business Impact Analysis

Which systems and functions are critical, recovery priority ranking, and the business impact of each failure scenario.

Recovery Time & Point Objectives

Defined RTOs and RPOs for each critical system — how long it can be down and how much data loss is acceptable.

Backup Verification Procedures

Documented process for confirming backups actually work — not just that they’re running.

Staff Roles & Communication Plan

Who does what in an incident, who notifies whom, and what gets communicated to clients and partners.

Vendor & Emergency Contact List

IT vendors, cloud providers, insurance contacts, legal counsel — documented and current.

Compliance Language

HIPAA (45 CFR §164.308), GLBA Safeguards Rule, or ABA Rule 1.6 language as appropriate to your industry.
