00:00:01.300 --> 00:00:02.580
In conclusion,

00:00:02.650 --> 00:00:06.890
it's good to remember that the process of getting to a business

00:00:06.890 --> 00:00:12.380
continuity disaster recovery plan in the cloud has a number of steps that

00:00:12.380 --> 00:00:17.230
are necessary that involve many different players. Folks from the legal,

00:00:17.230 --> 00:00:20.060
folks from IT, folks from the business,

00:00:20.070 --> 00:00:24.660
they all need to be brought together to refine the BCDR in a way that

00:00:24.660 --> 00:00:29.260
is in accordance with the business process. You have to make sure

00:00:29.310 --> 00:00:31.770
that you're dealing with critical assets.

00:00:31.770 --> 00:00:35.690
The word critical becomes a euphemism in our world.

00:00:35.700 --> 00:00:39.110
It's critical that we go to lunch at 12. That's not critical

00:00:39.110 --> 00:00:41.210
unless you haven't eaten in a couple of days.

00:00:41.220 --> 00:00:44.840
Understanding the elements that are critical to the survival

00:00:44.850 --> 00:00:47.850
of the business. Think about your airway,

00:00:47.850 --> 00:00:48.920
your breathing,

00:00:48.920 --> 00:00:53.270
your circulation, and in your bodily system, those are critical to living.

00:00:53.280 --> 00:00:57.320
We need to arrive at the elements that are critical to the

00:00:57.320 --> 00:01:00.990
survival of the business, so, what agreements are in place in

00:01:00.990 --> 00:01:04.860
the form of SLAs and contracts that help to set expectations

00:01:04.870 --> 00:01:06.680
and other contextual matters.

00:01:06.930 --> 00:01:12.060
Finally, the last time you tested the recovery time of those critical processes,

00:01:12.140 --> 00:01:15.040
did it involve going into the recovery location?

00:01:15.050 --> 00:01:16.600
What time of day did you do it?

00:01:16.610 --> 00:01:20.700
When was there a high or low transportation traffic issue? Going at

00:01:20.700 --> 00:01:24.340
the worst possible time may give you the worst case scenario that

00:01:24.340 --> 00:01:27.490
would give you a true reflection of what's possible under normal

00:01:27.500 --> 00:01:29.900
operating conditions. Well,

00:01:29.910 --> 00:01:34.190
thank you for joining me in this course. And, I'm wishing you

00:01:34.190 --> 00:01:38.530

00:01:38.530 --> 00:01:41.100
the platform in the future, soon.
