What is a Disaster Recovery Plan?

Understanding Disaster Recovery

Disaster recovery (DR) refers to an organization's ability to restore access and functionality to its IT infrastructure following a disaster event.

An effective DR plan (DRP) provides detailed instructions on how the organization will respond to disruptive events such as cyber attacks, natural disasters, and power outages.
