Types of Recovery Plans

  • Business resumption plan It focuses on how to re-create the necessary business processes that need to be reestablished instead of focusing on IT components (i.e., process oriented instead of procedural oriented).
  • Continuity of operations plan (COOP) It establishes senior management and a headquarters after a disaster. Outlines roles and authorities, orders of succession, and individual role tasks.
  • IT contingency plan It is plan for systems, networks, and major applications recovery procedures after disruptions. A contingency plan should be developed for each major system and application.
  • Crisis communications plan It includes internal and external communications structure and roles. Identifies specific individuals who will communicate with external entities. Contains predeveloped statements that are to be released.
  • Cyber incident response plan It focuses on malware, hackers, intrusions, attacks, and other security issues. Outlines procedures for incident response.
  • Disaster recovery plan It focuses on how to recover various IT mechanisms after a disaster. Whereas a contingency plan is usually for nondisasters, a disaster recovery plan is for disasters that require IT processing to take place at another facility.
  • Occupant emergency plan It establishes personnel safety and evacuation procedures.

Emergency Response

Often, the initial response to an emergency affects the ultimate outcome. Emergency response procedures are the prepared actions that are developed to help people in a crisis situation better cope with the disruption. These procedures are the first line of defense when dealing with a crisis situation.
