Disaster Recovery White Papers

The Myth About Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery

Overview On most campuses, central systems that manage functions like payroll, human resources, development, and registration are backed up every night. So are course management systems, mail servers, and other key systems that run the campus IT infrastructure. Having well-managed processes that include full and incremental backups of data and that utilize offsite storage is, however, no indication that a campus is ready for a disaster. Backup procedures form only one part of a complex plan that should involve senior administrators, business and operational units, faculty, students, and, yes, technology to ensure that the institution can operate through and beyond a disaster situation.
