This document explains university policy concerning the responsible management of the Campus Electronic Resources Disaster Recovery Plan. The primary purpose of the disaster recovery plan is to help ensure the continued operation of the university by providing the ability to successfully recover computer services in the event of a disaster.

A Disaster Recovery Plan is mandated by law and periodically reviewed in EDP audits conducted by the North Carolina Office of the State Auditor in order to help ensure that the resources and assets of the State are handled in a responsible manner. An effective Disaster Recovery Plan fulfills some of the greatest responsibilities of the university in helping to ensure the safety of our employees and students, protection of state resources and assets, and preservation of the security and integrity of our vital functions and data. The procedures outlined in the Campus Electronic Resources Disaster Recovery Plan (available on the Information Technology Services Division Web site) help ensure the continuation of essential functions and the ability to return to a fully operational state following a disaster.
