Who is CyberVAULT

CyberVAULT Services, Inc. is an independent business continuity company 

CyberVAULT’s success in large part is due to the independent nature and planning focus of its business deliverables. Planning and program management services are our sole business. CyberVAULT is not in the business of selling equipment or disaster recovery (hot site) facilities. As a result, Customers receive an unbiased appraisal of their business continuity and recovery needs. CyberVAULT is the only independent Business Recovery Planning Services consultancy that offers such a complete range of offerings backed by a senior level staff.

CyberVAULT’s consultants have over eighteen years experience in business recovery planning and assessment.   CyberVAULT staff experience includes, but is not limited to, plan development and maintenance using industry-leading products such as Sungard, Precovery and Strohl Systems LDRPS (Living Disaster Recovery Planning Systems).  Additionally, CyberVAULT has developed a proprietary software solution to assist with plan development and execution in conjunction with our planning services. 

CyberVAULT professionals are recognized leaders in disaster recovery, business continuity planning and program management, with a history of innovative, cost effective, real-time solutions tailored to meet the complex challenges confronting our clients.  CyberVAULT has created a seamless structure, providing a balanced team of personnel who can address a broad spectrum of client needs.

CyberVAULT offers a value proposition for its clients. CyberVAULT maximizes a Customer’s investment and expenditure required for an effective disaster recover program. Staffing and funds allocated for disaster recovery are used effectively providing Customer’s a total technology and business recovery solution. CyberVAULT has built its reputation for completing work on time and cost effectively.

Success Statement

As a result of our business model and implementation processes CyberVAULT has provided business recovery plans and programs that are usable and provide long term testing and support for both regulatory and internal requirements.

CyberVAULT has conducted numerous internal workshops for government agencies and businesses instructing them on the importance of business recovery planning, and how to effectively use their plans.  As previously noted a list of our planning services clients include major industry groups--banking and finance, commercial, public utilities and state government. 

Many of our Customers have benefited financially from our ability to negotiate hotsite agreements. CyberVAULT has written many RFP’s and SON’s, that have resulted in our Clients savings thousands of dollars. CyberVAULT understands the pricing dynamics of the major hotsite Vendors. If required, CyberVAULT can assist Clients in negotiating a hotsite agreement that is financially acceptable and incorporates service level terms and conditions that will enable Clients to effectively manage the contract.  In many engagements, CyberVAULT has effectively paid for our services from the monies that we have saved our Customers through the process of hotsite negotiations and Vendor selection.

CyberVAULT’s process is usable.  Most traditional plans are developed in such a manner that they are not easily understood and consequently are not managed well by an organization.  These plans are bulky and complicated.  CyberVAULT develops plans and programs that are usable and functional.  CyberVAULT believes that a business recovery plan and a business recovery program should be concise and to the point.  Value is gained by how accessible critical information is to an organization, and how effectively and efficiently this information can be accessed in an emergency.

CyberVAULT will have a minimal impact on your daily business activities.  Our methodology enables our clients to concentrate on their core capabilities with minor interruptions with the recovery planning process
