Details of Recovery Strategy |
Justification for Selected Recovery Strategy |
|
11.1 |
Facility Management |
4 hrs |
Relocate operations to an alternate facility |
Offsite Facility |
In case of facility damage, SHINE will use an alternate location to resume operations. This includes prearranged agreements with nearby facilities to ensure a smooth transition. |
Prearranged facilities with a similar setup allow for quick operations. |
|
11.2 |
IT Systems Management |
6 hrs |
Restore IT systems from cloud backups |
Cloud/ Offsite |
Critical systems are regularly backed up to the cloud. Recovery involves restoring data and applications from these backups to a temporary setup. |
Cloud backup ensures rapid recovery without dependency on physical site availability. |
|
11.3 |
Telecommunication Services |
2 hrs |
Switch to an alternate telecommunications provider |
Remote Locations |
Contracts with secondary telecommunication providers are in place. Recovery includes routing communications through an alternative provider if the primary services fail. |
Ensures minimal disruption to communication, vital for operational continuity. |
|
11.4 |
Data Centre Management |
12 hrs |
Failover to the disaster recovery data centre |
Offsite Data Centre |
A secondary data centre is maintained with the same configuration as the primary. Data and applications are replicated, allowing for failover during a crisis. |
Ensures business continuity by providing an immediate alternate data centre for system recovery. |
|
11.5 |
Service Support and Vendor Management |
12 hrs |
Engage pre-approved vendors for immediate support |
Vendor Locations |
Agreements with key vendors are in place, ensuring immediate engagement for system repairs or the procurement of essential services or equipment. |
Pre-approved vendors reduce support delays and minimise operational downtime. |
The recovery strategies for CBF-11 Facilities, IT Systems & Service Infrastructure are designed to mitigate risks and ensure that SHINE can quickly recover from disruptions to its critical infrastructure. By leveraging offsite locations, cloud-based solutions, and vendor partnerships, SHINE can restore operations with minimal downtime and continue providing its essential services.
These recovery strategies reflect a proactive approach to business continuity, safeguarding SHINE's ability to fulfil its mission of supporting at-risk youth, even during emergencies.
