Jeffery Lauria, Vice President of Technology at iCorps Technologies, a leading nationwide managed service provider, shared insight and direction on the benefits of Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery (BCDR) at the Annual Kaseya Connect Conference in Las Vegas this week. Jeff focused on the business benefits of a strong BCDR program and its importance for local resilience and the cloud. Cloud-based services such as those offered by Datto and Kaseya help organizations meet not only business requirements but regulatory requirements as well. Recovering from a disaster is critical to all businesses; without it, businesses lose customers' confidence. Continuity for cloud services enables a business to continue providing services when the provider has an outage. As Jeff wrote this blog, JetBlue had unscheduled maintenance during the day, resulting in an immediate loss of business. These real-time examples show how important continuity can be for business bottom lines.
As an IT executive professional with a track record of success in cloud adoption, IT governance, and regulatory compliance, Jeffery Lauria shared his expertise and experience as a senior cybersecurity consultant with Kaseya Connect attendees. He discussed how iCorps' Managed Security Services strategy and business model align with security/regulatory frameworks such as NIST, CIS18, GDPR, SOX, GLBA, etc. He also explained how iCorps established a multi-tier Security Operations Center (SOC) that provides 24/7 monitoring, detection, and response services for clients using Microsoft Security Solutions / Platform as a service Architect (Managed Services). He highlighted some of the sensitive data remediation projects that iCorps conducted for clients using Secure Access Service Edge / Zero Trust principles and technologies. He also advised executive teams and boards of directors on cybersecurity best practices and emerging trends.
Jeffery Lauria's presentation was well-received by the audience, who appreciated his practical and cost-effective IT solutions that allow businesses to focus on their core objectives. He also demonstrated his strong leadership and technical expertise that builds trust, influences strategy, and serves as a coach for leaders and teams. He concluded his session by inviting the attendees to visit iCorps' website and blog for more information and resources on BCDR and cybersecurity.
