Instructions: In approximately 10-12 double-spaced pages discuss the
planning steps, possible recovery options, and recommended testing
requirements needed to support a successful business
contingency/continuity of operations environment. Finally, the paper
should include your recommendation for a proposed 24-month cycle
business contingency testing plan -- what should be tested and how the
test should be conducted. Perhaps ranking possible critical corporate
assets with the type of testing (i.e., plan reviews, table-top
exercises, or perhaps up to and including full blown backup and recovery
tests) You should take into consideration costs associated with the
recommended testing process -- not only personnel and equipment but also
production costs.
Prepare your paper in Word. Include a minimum of 5 sources. The
citations and the reference list in the paper should be formatted in
accordance with APA 6th edition guidelines. Note: Also include a cover
page, a one-paragraph abstract, a table of contents and any appendix (if
necessary), which do not count toward the regular length of the paper.
