Deloitte Resiliency Centre

Is your organization flexible and resilient?

The Caribbean is the location of choice for many organizations. However, the risk of devastating tropical storms as well as other natural and man-made threats require organizations to protect their most important assets. If disaster struck your organization, where would you go? What would you do? How quickly would you be able to resume services to your clients?

DRC - Keeping your business going

Since 2004, the Deloitte Resiliency Centre (“DRC”) has been the premier disaster recovery facility in the Caribbean. The DRC has been ISO 27001-certified since 2017, and has supported our clients through all major disruptive events. Housed at the Citrus Grove Building in Grand Cayman, one of the most structurally sound buildings in the region, the DRC is designed to provide your organization with a secure multi-purpose space for personnel and data, supported by the top expertise in Cyber and IT. 

Our services include customized data suites, co-location hosting, secure resilience and innovation workspace, and secure media and document storage. Our clients range from smaller companies to multi-national organizations with significant technical and security requirements. We are a vendor- and telecommunications-neutral facility, and have connectivity options from all of the on-island telecoms companies.

The DRC offers purpose built server rooms (“Data Suites”) dedicated to an individual client. These Data Suites can be configured and customized to your exact requirements, whether used as a primary location for high density production server environments, or for disaster recovery and continuity purposes.

Data Suites are a cost effective and leading edge solution for businesses who wish to avoid the expense of establishing their own data centre facility, or who do not have the in-house skills to do so.
