Scenario:
Marketiser, a marketing company in Florida specializing in branding, advertising, market research, and design services, primarily serves small and medium-sized enterprises. After a devastating hurricane caused severe flooding and rendered its office unusable, Marketiser decided to implement a BCMS based on ISO 22301 to handle such disruptions.
The company formed a project team of four members from various departments and appointed Danielle as the project manager. Danielle conducted a comprehensive business impact analysis (BIA) focusing on activities related to data loss and backup recovery, recognizing the critical importance of safeguarding digital assets.
She set specific recovery objectives, including a one-day recovery point objective (RPO) and a two-day recovery time objective (RTO).
Based on the BIA outcomes, the team chose a business continuity strategy that involved relocating preconfigured trailers with essential hardware and connectivity to an alternate site. Considering Marketiser's vulnerability to hurricanes, the strategy allowed swift activation and relocation with minimal lead time. To validate their strategy, Danielle and the team conducted real-time recovery exercises, testing their ability to restore data and resume critical operations within the defined RTO.
Marketiser's business continuity process is illustrated in Scenario 5. Is this process compliant with ISO 22301?
