Audit Requirements - Disaster Recovery Exercise - October 2009


Quick View
Summary: 

As part of our audit requirements, ASU must demonstrate the viability of the Disaster Recovery Plan. To that end in October 2009, ASU and its hosting partner CMSC with perform a disaster recovery exercise and document the results. The HRSA environment will be the target for this exercise since it includes the most critical data for business continuity.

The primary project deliverable will be a report containing the results of the exercise, the next steps that would be necessary to return to operation should an event extend beyond one week and any gaps in our current plan.
