ABOUT US

Delivering control through crisis

We help businesses take control, collaborate, and manage through crisis situations with secure out-of-band incident response and crisis management tools — because an organized response supports a faster recovery.

When a disaster happens, every second counts

Not so long ago, ShadowHQ co-founder Nick Scozzaro was in charge of his department’s disaster recovery binders. He was asked to keep one copy in his car and one in his home, so he could mobilize his department’s response, day or night. Many companies still rely on binders or USBs to store contact lists, phone numbers and critical response policies and procedures. But those tools are hard to keep track of, aren’t secure, and rely on systems like call trees that can slow down response and create confusion. 

It’s tough to imagine what an IT or business-impacting crisis will look like, until you’re in it. Hardware or software failures, human error, natural disasters and cyber-attacks can throw your business offline, block access to critical files and disable your communication channels, leaving you and your response team unprepared, uncoordinated, and in the dark.

In a disaster scenario every second counts — system outages and business downtime increase your risk of financial loss and reputational damage.
