5355    DISASTER RECOVERY MANAGEMENT
(Revised 10/09)

Each agency must establish a Business Continuity Management Program that provides processes supported by executive management and resources to ensure the appropriate steps are taken to identify the impact of potential losses, maintain viable recovery strategies and plans, and ensure the agency has the ability to continue its essential functions during a business disruption or major catastrophic event. The program controls ensure that information is protected by providing for regular backup of automated files and databases, identifies and reduces risks, limits the consequences of the incident, and ensures the availability of information assets for continued business.
