Abstract
IT disaster recovery, or DR for short, is the side of business continuity that deals with protecting and recovering your critical IT services. This chapter explains the basic concepts of DR and tells you what you’ll need to do to set it up and keep it running. Besides basic strategies for keeping your IT up and running, I provide basic definitions of the concepts all managers involved with business continuity should understand, along with tips on identifying risks and creating a DR plan that has the approval of top managers.
