Welcome to the CNS Disaster Recovery Plan Project Wiki! This wiki houses information pertaining to the project, as well as information about Disaster Recovery in general.
According to the Information Resources Use and Security Policy from The University of Texas at Austin, each college, school, or unit responsible for a computer or software system is directed to maintain a recovery plan that is reviewed periodically by the University’s Office of Internal Audits.
The primary reason for a unit to engage in disaster recovery planning is to ensure the ability of the unit to function effectively in the event of a severe disruption to normal operations.
Severe disruptions can arise from natural disasters, equipment failures, process failures, mistakes and errors in judgement or malicious acts.
The College of Natural Sciences is required to establish a disaster recovery plan that incorporates plans and procedures that will enable effective and timely recovery from the effects of disasters and events that result in data loss or data corruption, system failure and/or other operational failures. The focus is on critical systems that are necessary for the unit to continue conducting business.
