Application Recovery
Application recovery is the process of restoring a software application and its data to a functional state after a disruption, such as a system crash or cyberattack. The goal is to bring the application back online so that users and business operations can resume normally.
TECHNICAL DEFINITION
A critical phase within incident response and disaster recovery (DR), application recovery involves the procedures to restore a software application's services and data integrity following a security breach, system failure, or corruption. This process is governed by Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) and Recovery Point Objectives (RPO) and often entails executing failover to a secondary site, restoring from backups, or redeploying the application stack to re-establish business continuity.
BACKGROUND
Computer security is a subdiscipline within the field of information security. It focuses on protecting computer software, systems, and networks from threats that can lead to unauthorized information disclosure, theft, or damage to hardware, software, or data, as well as to the disruption or misdirection of the services they provide.
