Disaster Recovery Planning A Cybersecurity Component Training Ppt

Slide 2

This slide gives information about disaster recovery planning. A disaster recovery plan outlines the steps to restart regular business operations and procedures following an organizational crisis. 

Slide 3

This slide gives an overview of the working of Disaster Recovery Planning. Disaster recovery depends on replicating data and computer processing in an off-premises location. 

Slide 4

This slide lists important elements in an effective disaster recovery plan. These are: Disaster recovery team, identification of critical information, risk evaluation, backups, and testing & optimization.

Instructor’s Notes: 

• Disaster Recovery Team: A designated team of experts should develop, implement, and manage the disaster recovery plan. The roles and duties of each team member should be specified. The team must be able to communicate with one another, staff members, vendors, and clients in case of a cyberattack
• Identification of Critical Information: A solid disaster recovery plan outlines the systems, applications, data, and other resources that are most important for maintaining company operations. The plan also documents measures that must be taken to recover data
• Risk Evaluation: Analyze any potential risks to your organization. Plan the steps and resources necessary to restore operations based on the type of incident
• Backups: Determine what needs a backup, who should perform backups, and how these should be implemented. Include a Recovery Point Objective (RPO) that specifies the frequency of backups along with a Recovery Time Objective (RTO) that states the maximum permissible downtime permitted after a security breach
• Testing & Optimization: The recovery team should regularly evaluate its strategy to address ever-evolving threats and business needs. In planning how to respond to a cyber attack, it’s critical that organizations test and optimize their security and data protection strategies

Slide 5

This slide discusses the building of a disaster recovery plan. This includes, crisis management, business continuity, impact assessment & recovery, and IT applications. 

Slide 6

This slide lists types of disaster recovery. These are backups, hot sites, cold sites, backup as a service, disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS), point in time copies, virtualization, instant recovery. 

Slide 7

This slide talks about backups as a type of disaster recovery. This is the simplest disaster recovery method, and it involves storing data off-site or on a removable drive. 

Slide 8

This slide gives information about cold sites that help in disaster recovery. A cold site is a business location used for backup in case of a disruptive operational disaster at the regular business site. 

Slide 9

This slide talks about hot site as a type of disaster recovery. A hot site maintains up-to-date copies of data at all times 

Slide 10

This slide talks about Backup as a Service for disaster recovery. Backup as a Service (BaaS) refers to backing up data that entails purchasing backup and recovery services from a third party, usually an online data backup provider. 

Slide 11

This slide gives information about Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS). In case of a disaster or cyberattack, a DRaaS provider shifts an organization’s computer processing to its cloud infrastructure, allowing a business to continue operations without disruption, even if its servers are down. 

Slide 12

This slide talks about point in time copies as a type of disaster recovery. A point-in-time copy, also known as a point-in-time snapshot, creates a copy of the database at a given instant. 

Slide 13

This slide gives information about virtualization that helps in disaster recovery. Organizations may back up certain operations and data or even a functioning replica of its entire computing environment on off-site virtual machines.

Slide 14

This slide talks about instant recovery as a type of disaster recovery. Instant recovery creates a snapshot of the entire virtual machine rather than replicating a database.
