Continuity and disaster recovery (CADR) ensures that our business processes can continue even if there is a disruption in the IT delivery and help recover from a disastrous situation.
There are developed and tested processes, frameworks, and plans for continuity and disaster recovery at Schibsted that can be used by various brands of Schibsted to ensure that the most business-critical processes are covered in order to mitigate and suppress the impact of an incident, a crisis or a disaster.
The CADR framework is designed to help brands establish their own business continuity and disaster recovery process.
The objective of the tests is to ensure that:
- identification and alarming of a disruption scenario,
- identified continuity procedure work according to plan, documented procedures and access rights which are accessible,
- affected personnel and their replacement can perform appointed activities,
- defined timeframes and measures are met.
