Why do I need to prepare and test a Disaster Recovery plan?

Organisations rely on their IT systems to run the business. When a component of the IT system fails, the resulting disruption to their IT services can negatively affect their business in terms of lost productivity, diminished goodwill, not to mention diminished short and long-term profitability.

And it is not good enough to just backup data and programs regularly as this does not guarantee a straightforward recovery from a system failure, human error or virus infection.

It is critically important that organisations have adequate disaster recovery procedures in place. This means reviewing existing procedures to ensure they are being properly implemented and managed, and to use a review to assess whether there are any problems occurring in a system.

The key to implementing an effective Disaster Recovery Plan is to have up to date and detailed network documentation.

All applications, hardware, operating systems, security policies and current procedures need to be audited, documented and assessed with regards the negative impact of failure to each of these components on the business.
