Summary:This program shows that business continuity involves all levels of an organization, and illustrates numerous examples of good preparation and execution of disaster recovery/BCP plans. Realistic cases dramatize two levels of business disaster. In the first, a company-wide computer problem brings operations to a standstill for 39 hours. In the second, a regional catastrophe forces evacuation of an organization's headquarters and closes the facility for months. The reenactments contrast the disaster responses of a prepared and an unprepared organization - and illustrates the steps and criteria for developing a practical business continuity plan.
