  • Abstract
    The article explains how and why planning your insurance coverage wisely can help you prepare for computer disasters. Although most people hear about disaster planning time and again, it´s only when disaster hits that they fully recognize how important it is to be prepared. Your agent can help you find the right insurance company so you can start preparing today. It is a given that finding time to develop an alternate operating plan is difficult, and insurance may not be the most exciting thing you will ever discuss. But a short-term investment can reap long-term payoffs. Ultimately, you will gain the peace of mind of knowing that your policy adequately reflects the types of losses and expenses you would face should the unthinkable happen
