Disaster recovery operation / Marcella Newton

It is vital that the disaster recovery plan be completed as soon as possible to guarantee that the organization can minimize the risk of record management loss. Disaster management should be considered in order to avoid data loss or abuse for malevolent purposes. Disaster recovery involves adequate operational and technical assistance to prevent downtime and ensure that company operations restart as soon as feasible when a disaster occurs. Six activities should be considered: security and safety, environmental stabilization, determining the amount of damage to records and facilities, repairing the storage space and building, continuous record preservation, and resumption of operations. Reviewing disaster zones for hidden hazards like shorter motors or frayed electrical lines is vital for security and safety. Every employee in the company needs to be aware of their surroundings to protect their own safety and the security of the building.
