Requirement #5: Enterprise-Wide Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Plan – (Due end of week 7)
Using your enterprise security plan proposal as a guide, write the enterprise business continuity and disaster recovery plan for your chosen organization. Good business continuity plans will keep your company up and running through interruptions of any kind: power failures, IT system crashes, natural disasters, supply chain problems and more. Given the human tendency to look on the bright side, many business executives are prone to ignoring “disaster recovery” because disaster seems an unlikely event.

Your plan should have the following attributes:
Disaster Recovery Plan – The disaster recovery provides detailed strategies on the steps that employees must follow during, and immediately after, a disaster. Not only does the plan provide exit procedures, it outlines communication instructions that ensure that every employee is accounted for and in communications with the central hub. This business hub includes emergency supplies, flashlights, backup business information and other items that have been outlined as important to the business and the safety of its employees and customers.
Business Continuity Plan – The business continuity plan takes the disaster recovery plan one step further. This plan outlines how the business will continue its operations after the disaster. It also outlines how the business will continue its operations after smaller, less disastrous events, such as power outages. The plan outlines how and where the business will operate if it is forced to move to a temporary location. It identifies the long-term, crucial strategies that are needed to ensure that the business maintains stability and generates profits.
