The Corporate Disaster Recovery Services 

team provides a common planning language 

across business units defined by checkpoints 

that must be met to complete the process.

Data owners select and combine different 

tools and templates to tailor DR plans to 

the specific needs of their lines of business.

Data owners filter through an 

exhaustive threat and vulnerability 

spreadsheet of 600+ threats to identify 

the threats relevant to their business.
