The DRP is designed to get IT infrastructure back up and running in the wake of adverse events like:
- Power outages, burst water pipes and electrical fires.
- Cyber attacks including malware, DDoS and ransomware incidents.
- Catastrophic machine and hardware failure.
- Natural disasters (floods, earthquakes, cyclones, severe storms, bushfires).
- Pandemics like Covid-19.
- Extreme threats such as terrorist attacks.
A DRP as part of a Business Continuity Plan helps protect productivity, industry reputation and legal compliance.
Putting a DRP in place
An IT disaster recovery plan focuses on the rapid restoration of systems and data post-incident.
The DRP needs to be documented, and requires ongoing management to reflect changes in technology, staff, the environment and government or legal requirements.
It’s crucial to test the DRP regularly to ensure the recovery process works effectively, updating the documentation with any changes that arise.
