PROJECT: IT SECURITY POLICY FRAMEWORK ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS
OVERVIEW
Depending on the situation, IT disaster recovery is a stand-alone concern or part of a broader business continuity effort. This considers types of backup sites, office PCs, and the restoration of data and programs. IT disaster recovery looks specifically at the technical aspects of how a company can get IT back into operation using backup facilities. IT disaster recovery is a business concern because decisions that seem purely technical may have major implications for the business that IT professionals may not accept and should not have the authority to make.
