Description

Internet was built on principles of redundancy and is used to mitigate disruptions. But what happens when there are multiple problems or damages, that need to be managed simultaneously? Are you ready to operate under the circumstances of blackouts, lack of diesel, curfew, and critical equipment shortage, when all these factors coincided? What about events of natural force that we’ve recently witnessed in Turkey and Syria, do you have disaster recovery plans at hand?
Many businesses were affected by the Russian war in Ukraine – some had to change how they operate, and others had to also deal with securing the network under the fire. The price of being unprepared to function in the event of a crisis of this scale is too high.

Our team has a unique experience of dealing with the constantly multiplied network and operational damages within the last full year. You’ll hear a review of the backbone operator’s operational and tech experience, affected by the war.

We’ll share the learnings of overcoming multi-layer challenges under the most extreme circumstances.

We’ll speak of how RETN minimizes the impact of disruptions, reduces the risk of financial losses due to outages, and keeps ensuring the continuity of the services.
