Provides campus wide resource to help departments prepare an effective and comprehensive business continuity/disaster recovery plan.
The first step to recovering from a service-interrupting disaster is to fully understand how your campus unit operates, what makes it tick, who makes critical decisions, who does what task, who has access to where important data is, who your venders are ... on and on. In other words, how does your unit do its daily business? You can not re-create it if you do not fully understand how it works in the first place.
Business Impact Analysis (BIA) templates and software is available — at not cost — at the University of Arizona to help you assess how your business is conducted. The templates and software can better help you understand your business in terms of potential threats to it.
Once a disaster or interruption of your services has occurred, you’ll need to respond to the challenges of restarting your operations. The Arizona Board of Regents (ABOR) and Arizona’s three public universities have licensed software available to assist you in working out your disaster recovery planning. This Web-based system is being used by the University of Arizona, Arizona State University, and Northern Arizona University, as well as ABOR.
