Disaster Recovery Plan
A documented process or set of procedures to recover and protect a business IT infrastructure in the event of a disaster.
A Disaster Recovery Plan outlines the policies and procedures to be followed in response to a major incident, such as a natural disaster or system failure.
It aims to prevent data loss and minimize the downtime of IT systems, ensuring business continuity. The plan should include recovery objectives, data backup strategies, and a clear communication plan.
Regularly updating and testing the disaster recovery plan is essential to ensure its effectiveness in real-world scenarios.
