Picking Up the Pieces After Hurricane Sally

Written by

Hurricane Sally has hit Raxis close to home, as we watched our colleagues and friends in Pensacola make it through the storm & begin clean up. Raxis’ Scottie Cole tells us how disconnected people feel as they wait to regain power and internet access.

In some ways, this disaster reminds us of what companies (and people) go through after they have gone through a breach or a “hack.” At times like this, the important thing is understanding that the unexpected happens in business and in life. You prepare as best you can in order to recover as quickly as you can.
