A Proactive Approach to Improving the is Disaster Recovery Plan

 

Abstract

Different organizations use different names to identify their plan of action to recover from interruptions to business operations due to natural or manmade disasters. For simplicity, this article uses the term disaster recovery plan. Whatever name is selected, the organization's executives expect the IS disaster recovery plan's provisions to enable employees to expeditiously restore, and in order of priority, the organization's computing capabilities that have been disrupted by the occurrence of some type of disaster. Yet, when actual disasters have occurred, organizations have found that reaching this goal was hindered by some of the issues that should have been addressed in the design stage of the disaster recovery plan.
