The areas of consideration to ensure a business has resilient ICT infrastructure and is prepared for an incident that would disrupt the businesses operation is not inconsiderable. Additionally, every business is different and so there is not a single solution to fit all.
Depending on your business and level of risk, every business will have different primary threats to business as usual. That is why risk assessments prior to assembling a business continuity plan can be so helpful. It is also why every plan needs to be bespoke and plan for multiple, potential interruptions to services caused by the unavailability of services, staff, workplaces, and third parties etc.
Wherever information is stored, it must be preserved and protected to maintain its credibility and confidentiality. This includes files, application data, messages, and other types of data. Each data set has unique requirements regarding how much data you are willing to lose during disruption (Recovery Point Objective, or RPO) and how quickly you need to restore operations after a disaster (Recovery Time Objective, or RTO).. These RPO & RTO objectives need to be realistic and consider their cost implications to ensure that appropriate processes and solutions are implemented effectively.
