T D.7: Business Continuity Plan

Develop and Implement a Business Continuity Plan for CJIS.

Other Information:

A Business Continuity Management process improves procedures and practices and increases the organization’s resilience in the event of interruption or loss. It will ensure that CJIS’s services will be available (pro-action), and if an incident occurs, CJIS can minimize the impact to the customer (reaction). There are two aspects to this goal: the technology and the staff. The effort to protect the technology requires a significant amount of resources and planning, particularly in the case of a catastrophic event. Even a seemingly insignificant event, such as a short-term but substantial snowstorm, can impact the available staff to service customers. Priority Actions: Implement a Disaster Recovery System that provides business continuity for the CJIS Division’s critical services. Develop a comprehensive contingency plan.
