DS 4.1 IT Continuity Framework

Control Objective:

Develop a framework for IT continuity to support enterprise wide business continuity management with a consistent process. The objective of the framework is to assist in determining the required resilience of the infrastructure and to drive the development of disaster recovery (see: Disaster Recovery Requirements Analysis) and IT contingency plans. The framework should address the organizational structure for continuity management, covering the roles, tasks and responsibilities of internal and external service providers, their management and their customers, and the rules and structures to document, test and execute the disaster recovery and IT contingency plans. The plan should also address items such as the identification of critical resources, the monitoring and reporting of the availability of critical resources, alternative processing, and the principles of backup and recovery.

Applicability:

Sarbanes-Oxley
HIPAA
GLBA
PCI
FISMA
NIST SP 800-66
Ditscap
Control Exception
User Defined


Risk Association Control Activities:

1. Risk: IT function does not meet the organizational needs.
a. SOX.2.0.1 Organizational policies and management procedures are in place to ensure the IT function is controlled properly.


2. Risk: Operational failures may not be identified and resolved in an appropriate, timely manger
a. SOX.2.4.1 There should be appropriate procedures to ensure that operational failures (e.g., disk drive problems, program amends, and other emergencies) are identified, resolved in a timely manner, and, where appropriate, approved retrospectively.
