As you probably know, last August's power outage affected
over 50 million people. In New York City alone, the
29-hour blackout cost the city $1.05 billion, or $36 million per
hour. More than just disrupting businesses, the power
outage prevented about $800 million of economic activity from
taking place.
In South Florida, it is the weather that most often causes
power disruptions. Florida is the lightning capital of the
world, and thunderstorms routinely cause power spikes, surges,
and brownouts. In 1992, Hurricane Andrew left 1.4 million homes
and businesses without electricity, some of these for over a
month.
The causes of power problems are numerous and the results are
painful: data loss, downtime and damage to critical
infrastructure. Loss of revenue and business continuity failures
are key concerns as businesses work towards full recovery.
Is your business prepared?
As the statistical peak of the Atlantic hurricane season
approaches, and after witnessing last week’s events in the
Northeast, now may be a good time for us to meet and review your
business continuity plan in order to identify and eliminate any
potential vulnerabilities in your power/cooling infrastructure.
On a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being "100% sure," how
certain are you that if you lost power today your network would
stay up and running?
20 minutes for peace of mind
Vulcan Logic has partnered with American Power Conversion
(APC), the worldwide leader in providing Network Critical

Vulcan Logic and APC can help you correct them with
industry-leading equipment and professional service. Either way,
you will have the peace of mind of knowing that your systems are
adequately protected.

NCPI: Network Critical Physical
Infrastructure
NCPI is the foundation upon which IT networks reside. It
consists mainly of power, power distribution, racks,
cabling, cable distribution, cooling, cooling distribution,
servicing and management of these applications. Weak NCPI
exposes IT networks to a number of security and availability
problems. Strong NCPI provides IT networks with defense
against security and availability problems. |
