Disaster  Recovery and Business Continuity (DR/BC) Plan

Great progress has been made regarding the creation of the Disaster  Recovery and Business Continuity (DR/BC) Plan. This assignment will  address implementation issues such as reviewing policies, training, and  testing methodologies. In addition, preparation for implementation will  include mitigation plans prior to an event, during an event, and after  an event.

For this assignment, you will work on creating the section of your  DR/BC Plan that addresses implementation and testing. The topics that  must be covered are mitigation plans prior to an event, mitigation plans  during an event, mitigation plans after an event, policies, training,  the emergency response team, and steps to restore critical systems.
