Disaster Recovery & Business Continuity

We take regular backups of all production environments with AWS, which are synchronized to multiple data centers in the AWS region. Backups are kept for 10 weeks. Backups are encrypted. All environments are scanned for malware, viruses, and other malicious code.

Each part of the DRP is tested annually for effective operation and successful information system operation at the selected disaster recovery site. Alternate recovery sites are maintained in case of major disaster. Clients can request disaster recovery testing in the Project Plan as a Planning Milestone in compliance with a contract between the customer and LabLynx Inc.

The hosted network is physically and logically isolated from all remote locations, including the company offices. It is hosted with AWS, for which personnel, guests, or otherwise, have no physical access. Damage to central offices or any other remote site will not impede continued work from other locations.

An estimated RTO time frame is based on one (1) hour per 100GB of restored data plus one (1) hour system configuration.

  • Server Instance Disaster: A server instance disaster would require restoring the destroyed server into a new instance at AWS from the most recent backup.
  • VPC/Network Disaster: A VPC/Network disaster would require restoring the destroyed VPC from the CloudFormation template backup.
  • AWS Availability Zone Disaster: A disaster event for an AWS availability zone would require restoring the destroyed environment into the alternate, functional AWS region.
