Let’s imagine that you live in a big city and your company or organization has normal office hours. It’s six in the afternoon and all your support staff and those in charge of Customer Assistance take their portfolios and wallets, and leave the office heading home. And at that moment, an attack occurs on the network of one of your clients and the system is about to collapse. Your data is being compromised, and there are at least 14 hours left for your assistant to even open your office and start making coffee.
Unless the customer has noticed immediately and has been able to notify your Customer Support staff by phone, and assuming that they are really committed to your company and are willing to return immediately to the office, it is likely that when Customer Support staff has been able to return, it may be too late and the client is already upset, frustrated or even financially affected by the delay or lack of support. And even with an unconditional staff, ready to do everything for your company, it could be that the traffic on the roads prevents them from arriving on time to avoid a catastrophe!
