Disaster Recovery Checklist
A well executed Disaster Recovery plan should be able to answer the following question with a Yes:
"If I don’t have physical access to my computer, will I still be able to get work done?”
If your answer to that question is currently “No”, here are a few things to consider.
A) Do you make daily copies /backups of your organization’s information? In the event of a problem, you shouldn’t have to lose more than a few hours’ work if your backup plan is well organized.
- If you make copies of your organization’s information, where do those copies go?
If they stay in your office, and you can’t get to your office, it’s almost as if you don’t have a backup. Consider a safe means of offsite storage.
B) Do you have all the software you need?
- Do you have a list of all the software your organization uses? Do you know where all the CDs /installation disks for the software are? Can you install them on another computer in the event of a disaster?
- Do you have copies of your CDs? Where do you keep your copies if you have them?
