- W283305220 abstract "[Abstract] The authors discuss the concepts of business and human enterprise continuity as they apply to schools. Planning for disaster recovery in schools will require a systematic approach including the development of policies and oversight procedures by state and regional accrediting associations, and the assessment of the entire range of school vulnerability, including the risk of the loss of critical data, facilities and personnel. In the context of risk management, the school must be viewed as a unique community requiring response and recovery planning at multiple levels. [Keywords] Business continuity; disaster recovery; international schools The first of the 21st century might well be called the decade of EMDAT: The OFDA/CRED International Disaster Database, reports that in 2005 the top three disasters in terms of number of deaths occurred in Pakistan, Guatemala, and the United States. The countries most frequently hit by natural disasters in 2005 were The People's Republic of China (31 disasters), India (30), and the United States (16). The cost of the hurricanes Katrina and Rita alone amounted to more that U.S. $131 billion (Http://www.em-dat.net). The global reporting of the mass media has raised the public's awareness of the prevalence of disasters in human culture. Whether geological in nature or man-made, the first has impressed on educators the need for emergency preparedness and a proactive posture with respect to external threats to successful school operation. All schools have a professional responsibility to identify and secure essential data. The Emergency Response capability of any school-within or outside the U.S.-must include a plan for the recovery of essential academic, operational, business and personnel data sets with the aim of restoring normal operations or passing these datasets to the interested legal party. Yet, a number of studies indicate that U.S. and international schools are woefully under prepared to respond to and recover from any catastrophic interruption of operations (Ketterer and Price, 2006, 2007). It is disconcerting to note that Gartner research data show that 90% of surveyed organizations in the United States are planning for single facility [power and IT] outage rather than a regional disaster. Only 62% are planning for an IT outage (cited in Witty, 2006). Citing various sources (CBL, Gartner Research, Meta Group, SunGard Data Systems), the for-profit service provider Global data Vault makes the following observations: * Less than 1% of companies perform daily data backups * Only 20% of businesses that backup their data have it stored offsite * An estimated 80% of companies are not prepared to keep their business running in the event of a disaster. * Of the companies that lose their data in a disaster, 90% are out of business within two years, (http://www.globaldatavault.com/v3/howitworks/serviceoverview.asp) Clearly, small businesses and schools are more vulnerable than large corporations, most of which have already taken affirmative steps to protect their critical interests. After events like hurricanes (Andrew, Katrina) and the Oklahoma City tornado, it is almost inconceivable that organizations-businesses and schools-are not ramping up to defend their essential data and their precious resources. The observations included herein may be applied to U.S. as well as overseas contexts. According to Croy and Geis (2005), both Disaster Recovery (DR) and Business Continuity Planning (BCP)) are risk-management disciplines. DR is the reaction to any interruption of normal operation that is intended to lead back to an orderly and timely restoration of services. They define BCP as ...the proactive discipline of identifying vulnerabilities and risks, and planning in advance how to mitigate, accept, or assign them in the event of a business disruption (p.6). An integral feature of the business continuity plan is the security of vital information. …" @default.
