Q: How can I determine if my Disaster Recovery Plan is up-to-date and, most of all, still workable?

A: Everyone knows that having a well-documented Disaster Recovery Plan is a necessary part of doing business. But when was the last time you re-visited your plan, made sure that everything is still current with respect to your existing environment, and – gasp! – actually tested it to ensure that it works? The worst case scenario, which you want to avoid at all costs, is a recovery attempt which fails completely or which can only be partially completed. To be effective, it is best to have a skilled professional review your current plan to test and determine its true current-state viability. This can be done with current skilled staff members or an outside resource. Disaster Recovery plans must be reviewed and tested on a regular basis to remain effective. Don’t get caught by surprise at the worst possible moment.
