Start of Business has a different meaning than it did 15-20 years ago for many. It used to mean the time you settled into your chair with a fresh cup of coffee sometime, and logged into your computer, typically around 9AM. For the next 8 hours, you were engaged in whatever is on your plate that day, and around 5PM, you were out the door to go about your evening.

For many today, Start of Business begins at home or on your commute, and End of Day is dependent on the needs of your clients and customers. Your PC may sit in the office, however laptops, tablets, surfaces, mobile phones, cloud storage and sharing, softphones, and remote access to the office (to name a few) allow us to be accessible at all times from just about anywhere.

How these tools are put in place, maintained and improved over time is no easy task. Each of these assets has to be managed, kept up to date, and protected by redundancy and backups to minimize risk of downtime or data loss. The broad stroke term for this is Business Continuity, and it is not to be taken lightly.
