What do you do when something bad happens to your servers or data? Many organizations do not like to think about the worst, or even have a plan for when things go wrong.
The following list is a set of items that should be reviewed when creating an security audit of your disaster recovery plan.
- Is this server backed up on a regular basis?
- Are these backups stored securely offsite in a protected manner?
- Are test restores done to ensure that the process works and backup media is functioning?
- Is all backup media labeled and dated?
- Is the recovery console installed?
