When Is It Time to Upgrade Your Disaster Recovery Plan
It’s never easy to predict when disaster will strike. People refer to something as a disaster when it exceeds normal event expectations, such as a storm that causes more than expected damage, or an incident that inflicts more harm than anticipated. Disasters can harm physical property, but they can also cause damage to an organization’s people, assets, or reputation. Most organizations make disaster planning a key component of business continuity. Disaster recovery lets managers know how to deal with an emergency. They know what the priorities are, how to respond, what steps to take and how to keep operations as normal as possible. Disaster recovery is an important aspect of keeping an organization alive when things go wrong. Here’s a look at how often disaster plans should be upgraded.
