Business Continuity

Name

Business Continuity

Statement

University activities must be maintained, despite system interruptions.

Rationale

As system operations become more inherent, we become more dependent of them. Therefore, we must consider the reliability of such systems throughout their entire conception and application. Business areas throughout the entire company must be able to continue conducting their normal activities, regardless of external events. Hardware failures, natural disasters, and lack of data integrity must not interrupt business activities. Business activities must be able to employ alternative mechanisms to convey information.

Implications
