Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery (BCDR or BC/DR) are closely related practices that describe an organization's preparation for unforeseen risks to continued operations. The trend of combining business continuity and disaster recovery into a single term has resulted from a growing recognition that both business executives and technology executives need to be collaborating closely instead of developing plans in isolation.

Introduction: - for my research project, I would like to explore about the cyber security measures. Cybersecurity covers the fundamental concepts underlying the construction of secure systems from the hardware to the software to the human computer interface, with the use of cryptography to secure interactions. These concepts are easily augmented with hands-on exercises involving relevant tools and techniques. We have different types of computer related crimes, cybercrimes, computer related offenses, federal approaches defenses. The information resources management has the technical matters for which IT are widely known. Cyber resources and cyber power as well as cyber security. We have spent a lot of time talking about many different high level critical infrastructure protection concepts we have general rule stayed away from cyber security explaining the ins and out of how the NIPP and NRF work together to ensure that we can live our daily live in relative comfort.

These chapters discuss the recovery strategies that the business would need to restore vital functions to an acceptable level following a disastrous event. Without these plans or strategies, a business could suffer tremendous losses such as market share, competitive advantage, and valuable customers. Having the CEAS program is one way that an organization attempts to remedy this situation. It is very important that CEAS is incorporated in the disaster recovery plan of all business entity. Pre-selected employees that would need access to the facility, and processes that would need to be up and running will go a long way in preserving a company’s data, reputation, and financial resources, and competitive

1. What are some of the emerging IT security technologies that should be considered in solving the Problem related to the case?

Of the three Systems/Application Domain risks, threats, and vulnerabilities identified, which one requires a disaster recovery plan and a business continuity plan to maintain continued operations during a catastrophic outage?

When taking a look deep into an organization’s different departmental operation, it becomes clear how to plan to protect the most data and also which areas is more operation critical. While preventing interruption is the most important aspect of this plan, no one can predict the weather or any other attack. As part of the steps to implement the business continuity plan, Sunshine Machine Works will need to document a risk management plan, business impact analysis, incident response plan, plan activation, incident response team, communications, contact list and recovery plan section. Once all has been documented, the organization will need to test, evaluate and update schedule.

Every business and organization can experience a serious incident which can prevent it from continuing normal operations. This can happen any day at any time. The potential causes are many and varied: flood, explosion, computer malfunction, accident, grievous act... the list is endless.

Disasters have become an inevitable part of businesses and organizations as well. They not only have a major effect on business and organizational continuity; they also result to an overhaul in organizational operational mechanisms (Awasthy, 2009). It is for this reason that many organizations and business resort to preparing business continuity plans and disaster recovery plans that will facilitate better disaster management in future. Effective disaster recovery plans are important to every business and organization (Thejendra, 2008).

Disaster recovery is the process of an organisation uses to recover access the data, and also hardware that are needed to recollect the performance to be in normal position after a disaster occurs. While disaster recovery plans have to be focus in every aspect in any organisation and bringing the gap closure after destruction it can be like data, hardware, or software have been lost and the manpower that composes much of any organisation.

Disaster Recovery Planning is the critical factor that can prevent headaches or nightmares experienced by an organization in times of disaster. Having a disaster recovery plan marks the difference between organizations that can successfully manage crises with minimal cost, effort and with maximum speed, and those organizations that cannot. By having back-up plans, not only for equipment and network recovery, but also detailed disaster recovery plans that precisely outline what steps each person involved in recovery efforts should undertake, an organization can improve their recovery time and minimize the disrupted time for their normal business functions. Thus it is essential that disaster recovery plans are carefully laid

A large US public power provider, with millions of residential and business customers, needed to rethink its disaster recovery program. Due to budget constraints, the utility’s data recovery program had not been updated or tested for several years. Under the existing program, systems recovery could take up to 20 days—an unacceptable timeframe for a
