IT Disaster Recovery Planning
Business Continuity Planning is simply working out a plan of how to remain in business after a disaster and should include a detailled IT specific
Disaster Recovery Plan that will ensure the resumption of IT Infrastructure (applications, data, hardware, networking etc) within a suitable time period.
A well thought through IT Disaster Recovery Plan that is tested regularly is proven to improve the chances of your business surviving a natural or man induced disaster.
A Good IT Disaster Recovery Plan Could Include
- Good, regular backup of critical data stored offsite.

- Local mirrors of applications and data (and or RAID technology).
- The use of uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) to minimise the effects of power surges and power outages.
- Fire prevention and suppression systems to protect IT Infrastructure.
- Well maintained IT Security measures such as Firewalls and Antivirus.
- Sources of compatible replacement IT equipment at short notice.
- Regular auditing and testing of all elements of the Disaster Recovery Plan.
