Hoi, Yes. You are right. But having a strategy starts with basics. Having full backups and moving them of the premises. The next part, having a working environment is a next step.
Did you consider what it means when a government takes hold of the domain? How we are to change the registration so that it points to a different IP address. The point is that when we need this we are in real hot water and we have to prepare for this. So let us have a backup and then take the next step; know where it is and what scenarios there are we want to prepare for.
