Contingency Management

Contingency Management is an essential continuity provision incorporated into the IS security process. It provides the user with a backup plan in the event of an emergency involving the temporary incapacitation of the system. This would prevent loss of vital data, time spent trying to organize directly after the event occurs, and interruptions of the work process that would cost precious time and money. The responsibilities of the IS Security Group related to its incidence response functions are covered later in this document.
