Disaster Recovery
Disaster Recovery (DR) is the process of restoring an organization's critical IT infrastructure and data after a natural or human-made disaster. It involves a set of policies, tools, and procedures designed to enable the quick resumption of business operations.
TECHNICAL DEFINITION
Disaster Recovery (DR) is a cybersecurity and defense strategy involving the comprehensive restoration of critical information systems, data, and operational capabilities following disruptive events, leveraging predefined plans, backup strategies, and redundant infrastructure to minimize downtime and data loss. This strategic resilience ensures business continuity and operational survivability against cyberattacks, natural disasters, or infrastructure failures.
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.
