Assignment : Business Continuity Plan
The phrase "the show must go on" is perhaps more true in business than in performing arts. Organizations need to be prepared to run continuously regardless of environmental conditions.
For this assessment, imagine that you are the IT manager for the only print shop in a small town in Idaho. The shop is connected to the internet by satellite link. Orders are received via the internet as well as by walk-ins with portable storage drives or smart phones that can transfer files via Bluetooth network.
Write a four to five (4-5) business continuity plan (BCP) in which you:
1. Identify the organization's exposure to internal and external threats.
2. Identify ways that the organization can maintain its risk.
3. Describe the foreseen security risks.
4. Assess the importance of training the shop personnel on security risks.
5. Recommend at least two (2) strategies for continually improving the quality and effectiveness of the BCP.
6. Analyze the organizational risks inherent in the execution of the BCP plan.
