Business continuity
Can your business keep working when systems are unavailable?
Start with one essential service. Identify the people, identities, systems and suppliers it relies on, and give each dependency a named owner. Agree how much downtime and data loss the business can tolerate.
Then run an exercise. Restore a representative backup, ask the team to carry out the fallback process and check that the right people receive and act on alerts. Record what failed, who will fix it and when it will be retested.
Share the results with leadership, including the recovery time you demonstrated and the work still needed to meet the business requirement.
