Scenario 1: The Group 2 BCP in previous sections contains a good description of the overall roles and responsibilities of the IT, EMT, DRT teams, for responding to natural disasters. This includes backup and archiving, communication and notification procedures, action plans, and diagrams addressing containing and recovering operations, that each team has, and appropriate OptiPress staff can access through the network. The OptiPress BCP Disaster Declared – Section 18, can be improved by considering the following recommendations:

1. List the addresses and phone numbers of specific alternate data center locations in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Maryland, in the event the Pittsburgh data center, and other Pennsylvania data centers need to be evacuated.

1. Clarify what organized rescue and disaster control operations mean for OptiPress, rather than any area of the society. Specifically, list the main teams working with DRT, that are being mobilized to the command center and their roles in responding to the natural disaster incident, until the rescue mission is completed.

1. Rather than define Disaster Recovery, describe the purpose or intent of DR relating to the command center plans and objectives (i.e. time periods, measurements, standards) used for continuing OptiPress business operations at alternate websites.

Scenario 2: The Group 2 BCP in previous sections contains an overall good process, policies, diagrams, and action plans in responding to data breaches and network outages. However, the specific IT team roles and responsibilities in earlier sections (i.e. 6, 9) could include data breach and system outages, which would then correspond to Section 18. This OptiPress BCP Disaster Declared Section 18 can be improved by considering the following recommendations:

1. Include the IT team and its role in mitigating data breaches and system outages.

1. Describe the IT team role in communicating and coordinating the disaster with OptiPress Senior Management and Department managers.

1. Briefly describe the joint plans, goals, and responses (include meeting places) amongst the teams and Senior Management in dealing with federal agencies, outside parties (suppliers, vendors), users, customers and public relations in handling compromised data, and system outages for continuing OptiPress business operations.

19. Contact EMT & DRT: Decide whether to continue to business recovery phase

Scenario 1: The Group 2 BCP in previous sections presents a good overview and process of the team roles in deciding whether to continue the business recovery phase, from natural disasters. The BCP Section 19 presents the main parts that go into deciding whether to continue to the business recovery phase, such as Assessment procedures, gathering requirements, Safety and Security issues, etc.

The BCP OptiPress Section 19 can be improved by considering the following recommendations:

1)     Include the OptiPress Assessment and Evaluation Forms (Incident/Disaster, and Critical Equipment Status Assessment and Evaluation Form.  These important Forms are used to assess and document the disaster incident specifics, and condition of important equipment, for determining whether to continue to the business recovery phase.

2)     The BCP could explain the process, requirements, and safety concerns evaluated by the “appropriate OptiPress Managers, and Teams” in completing these forms, and deciding as for whether to continue to the business recovery phase.

3)      Provide a specific section for “building access permitting”.

4)     Provide more BCP “specifics” relating to OptiPress management and teams making decisions in the different headings/sections (See #2 above).

Scenario 2: The Group 2 BCP in previous sections presents a good overview and process of the team roles in evaluating or deciding whether to continue the business recovery phase, due to data breaches and system outages.  The Group 2 BCP Section 19 seems to focus on natural disasters.  

The OptiPress Section 19 can be improved by considering the following recommendations:

1)     Describe regulations, audit requirements in the BCP, governing the protection of PII.

2)     Mention the OptiPress systems and applications subject to PII protection, and system outages.

3)     Describe some OptiPress IT safeguards for data breaches, i.e. encryption, backup, passwords, testing, etc.

4)     Describe the OptiPress teams, and management communication plans to stakeholders, customers, suppliers, law agencies, etc. upon discovery of data breach.

5)     Describe the need for budget and insurance funds available to resolve OptiPress data breach and system outage data recoveries (Koeppel, n.d.).

6)     Discuss joint plans amongst Business Continuity, Data Recovery, and IT cybersecurity teams in continuing operations upon discovery of PII breach (Kirvan,
