A client's network was not backed up and suffered a catastrophic failure costing the company over $100,000 to recover data that was not backed up. This included the completion of a complete physical inventory by an external consulting company with internal people assisting.
The CIO wants to fire the Network Administrator. The NAs boss is playing mea culpa big time because he feels responsible. I am left feeling that the "little guys" are paying for the failure of the "big guys" to have appropriate systems and checks and balances in place.
After an earlier failure, were the appropriate follow up checks instituted and followed? Is the top guy responsible that this failure puts the implementation of a major network system off by several months? I think, "yes." I am wondering if that is the way it is in organizations. The little guys pay and the big guys change the dates on their action plans.
What do you think?
