S 6.13 Development of a data backup plan<br />

Initiation responsibility: Head of <strong>IT</strong> Section, <strong>IT</strong> Security Management<br />

Implementation responsibility: Administrator; staff responsible for the<br />

individual <strong>IT</strong> applications<br />

<strong>The</strong> data backup plan must enable an expert third person to obtain within<br />

reasonable time, and to install, the entire software required for the restart of an<br />

<strong>IT</strong> procedure (operating system software, application software) and the<br />

associated data.<br />

A data backup policy must provide information on:<br />

- the storage location of the data during normal operation (disk-memory<br />

space allocation table);<br />

- stock of backup data (inventory);<br />

- the time of data saving;<br />

- nature and extent of data backup (logical/physical; partial/full);<br />

- the procedure used for data saving and for reconstruction of backup data;<br />

- the location where the media are kept (indication of any access means<br />

required).<br />

<strong>The</strong> systematic compilation of a data-backup policy as the basis for a databackup<br />

plan is described in Chapter 3.4.<br />

Additional controls:<br />

- Are data backup measures carried out in accordance with the data backup<br />

policy?<br />

- Has the possibility to obtain, without delay, the required data media from<br />

external data backup stocks been ascertained during emergency<br />

preparedness exercises?<br />

- How up-to-date is the existing data backup policy?<br />
