Your Business Requires a Resilient Internet

One of my initial surprises upon joining Catchpoint about five months ago was to do with how much confusion there is in the observability market.  Every single vendor has almost the same message around ensuring a great digital experience for your customers or employees or both. Of course, these experiences are critical to get right, but for the most part many of these solutions, at best, help to ensure that sites are live and available, and that they are reachable by some users. The piece that struck me most is that not so long ago, enterprises relied upon their own internal networks to drive the business. This, however, is no longer the case. Today the Internet is your new network, and the resiliency of the Internet is critical for you to deliver any customer and/or employee digital experience.  Simply put, without the Internet, you don’t have an experience.

“The Internet is held together with spit and bailing wire”

Resilience is a business priority at the executive level and we believe that given the reputational impacts alone, your customer and employee experiences should be elevated to be included as well. Typically, at the board level, resilience programs are focused on governance, risk, and compliance but nothing is more visible to your customers and employees than your website. If your site is down, if it’s not reachable, if it’s not performing, it affects your reputation and your bottom line. However, the Internet itself was not built as a means of supporting business. It was built for research and as infamously reported by Brian Krebs, the Internet is held together with spit and bailing wire. At its core, the Internet is fragile and ever-evolving and as a result, you need the right strategy to ensure its resilience.
