Creation of Disaster Recovery / IT Continuity Plan
| Title: | Creation of Disaster Recovery / IT Continuity Plan (ID: EPS218) | | Author(s): | Theresa Rowe (Oakland University) | | Topics: | Business Continuity Planning, Disaster Recovery Planning | | Origin: | Community Contributions (2004) | | Type: | Effective Practices | | Abstract: | We began our disaster recovery planning processes after experiencing several disasters, including a building fire, an environmental contamination, faulty discharge of a fire suppression system, and several severe electrical outages. This practice is a process that we use to evaluate risk and plan for recovery from disaster. It is an ongoing process, not a destination. It is impossible to document everything needed for every disaster recovery. We need to plan on including thinking, reasonable people, and key backup people, who can calmly work through a situation. Each and every situation is different.
