Additionally there are many instances of dry runs in which tests are made  to see how quickly a business can be up and running if all of their computer records are destroyed. This is a very interesting and important job and this  paper goes into detail about it. WHAT IS DATA REPLICATION? Data replication is an electronic means of backing up all computer data on a regular basis to an offsite  secured area. By doing this, in the event of a natural disaster or act of war, or any other type of action that would cause the destruction of computer  files, a business that has been in the habit of data replication can literally pick up where they left off and resume business almost immediately without skipping a beat.  To many, the thought of losing all the data that is stored on computers within an organization would be a total nightmare; the business would be virtually unsalvageable in  some cases. There are now data replication companies such as that of Network Integrity that offer data replication services to ensure that companies always have a safe backup of  all computer records. "The anticipation of day-long power outages and disruptive earthquakes that could cause downtime and lost transactions are always on my mind" says Tom Halen. He  decided to look into data replication for his financial network in San Francisco, sending the replicated files to a remote office in San Diego (Connor 17, 1999). Forensic accountants were
