Education and information technology (IT) are increasingly inextricable. Whether the IT in question is an application supporting a classroom whiteboard, the database supporting a university registration system, the learning management systems (LMS), or the building maintenance system controlling student access to the labs, dorms, and dining halls — if key components of your IT infrastructure suddenly go dark, neither teachers, administrators, nor students can accomplish what they are there to accomplish. The mission of the institution is interrupted. If the interruptions are too frequent, if the experiences of students, teachers, and administrators suffer, the reputation of the institution itself can suffer as well.
