DR Team Members and their contact numbers  \n2. Business Impact Assessment  \n3. Business Resumption Plan  \n4. Server/Network Documentation  \n5. Hardware and Software Support contFrt5s0a6nEd4cAo1nct numbers  \n5. Backup Documentation  \n6. Restore Documentation  \nI. Build Disaster Recovery Team  \nA team needs to be assembled that will respond in the event of a disaster. This  \nteam should include a member or representative of Senior Management, members from the IS Department that will perform the assessment and recovery, representatives from Facilities, and members from the Business and User  \nCommunities to determine what level of recovery is needed and to verify that  \nrecovery is complete.  \n“Crises, by nature, are generally complex and extremely dynamic. They leave only a small window of opportunity to do the right thing. Having your team in place is the most important step you can take to effectively  \nmanage a potential crisis .”1  \nII. Determine/Evaluate Potential Sources of Outage  \nIdentify potential sources of computer outages:  \na) Hardware failure  \nb) Network failure  \nc) Software error  \nd) Malicious attack  \ne) Event that disables computer, computer room and/or site  \nf) Loss of personnel.  \nIn most cases, a critical hardware failure can be repaired within a few hours, though this is dependent upon the level of support you have purchased from your hardware vendor. Your support level and substantiating vendor agreements  \nshould be included in your DRP.  \n© SANS Institute 2000-2002 As part of GIAC practical repository. Author retains full rights.  \nChristina Cappelletti  \nThe same is true if a network failure is caused by a hardware failure of your  \nnetworking equipment. If however, the network failure is caused by a disruption in any way of phone service, the length of time to recover may not be knowable  \nand will not be within your control.  \nSoftware error can be a user-mistake that causes bad or erroneous data to be  \ncommitted to or deleted from a database. It can also be the application of a  \nsoftware patch that caused more harm than good.  \nMalicious attack can be any form of an attack with the goal of stopping your  \noperation: malicious user error from inside; malicious hardware damage from  \ninside or outside; malicious software damage from inside or outside; denial of  \nservice attacks, virus attacks, etc. F8B5 06E4 A169  \nSevere weather, fires and explosions can destroy a computer room or building.  \nEven if the room or building is not destroyed, these events can prevent users  \nfrom accessing the computers by disrupting phone lines .  \nAlthough the computer and its applications are up and running, if all of your administrative personnel went to a conference and were victims of a plane crash, you have a disaster from which to recover.  \nIII. Business Impact Assessment  \nYour Business Community must determine the time frame in which recovery from a disaster must be complete. The factors, which should go into this assessment,  \nare:  \na) Cost of the failure – loss of revenue;  \nb) Cost of recovery vs . loss of revenue;  \nc) Acceptable work-arounds during time of failure;  \nDatawarehouses may take a week or more to re-create, but they are generally  \nnot revenue producing.
