🔒 It’s World Backup Day! 🔒 At The Walker Group, we understand the critical importance of having a solid backup and disaster recovery (BDR) plan in place. Protecting your business from data loss isn’t just about backing up—it’s about being prepared for the unexpected. 💡 Tips for Effective Backup & Disaster Recovery: ➡️ Plan Ahead – Don’t wait for disaster to strike. Start developing a comprehensive BDR strategy now to ensure your mission-critical data is protected. ➡️ Proactive Monitoring – We offer 24/7 monitoring to ensure your backups are always healthy and ready to recover your data in case of an emergency. ➡️ Test, Test, Test – Monthly test restores are essential. We help verify that your backup will actually work when you need it most. ➡️ Know Your Limits – Define your Recovery Time Objective (RTO) and Recovery Point Objective (RPO) so you know exactly how much downtime and data loss your business can tolerate. ➡️ Be Ready for Anything – From accidental file deletions to cyberattacks, The Walker Group ensures you're covered with a robust disaster recovery plan. When it comes to business continuity, being proactive is key.

We're honored to reshare this wonderful feature by Hartford Foundation for Public Giving, highlighting our founder, Kate Emery! Kate’s journey as a businesswoman, artist, and passionate advocate has guided The Walker Group from pioneering technology solutions to becoming Connecticut’s first Benefit Corporation and now a Perpetual Purpose Trust-Owned Company! Thank you to Hartford Foundation for Public Giving for sharing Kate’s inspiring story and her ongoing commitment to community-driven innovation! Check out their original post below! ⬇️
Kate Emery is a businesswoman, artist, and advocate. She founded The Walker Group, a technology consulting firm that blends high-tech solutions with a human touch. Kate was inspired by her engineer father and her social worker mother, Hope, who founded a number of nonprofits in Farmington that support nature, the elderly, and children. Kate soon turned a computer recycling initiative into an independent operation. Her passion for social enterprise led her to establish reSET (Social Enterprise Trust), Hartford's social enterprise incubator, aiming to make Connecticut a hub for social entrepreneurship. In 2014, The Walker Group became the state's first Benefit Corporation, committing a third of its profits to the community. Kate recently transitioned the company into Connecticut's first Perpetual Purpose Trust to ensure its commitment towards a fairer, more sustainable world. #Nonprofit #HartfordFoundation #TechnologyConsulting #SocialEnterprises #Hartford #Entrepreneurship
