Why put a number on downtime
It's your business case
Put a euro figure on an outage and continuity investment stops being a hard sell.
Leaders fund what they quantify
A number the board understands turns 'we should' into an approved budget.
It's the input to RTO/RPO
Knowing the cost per hour tells you how fast you actually need to recover.
