Refers to the ability to maintain availability of data and operational processing despite a disrupting event.

High availability

A(n) _______________ is a partially configured backup processing facility that usually has the peripherals and software but perhaps not the more expensive main processing computer.

Warm site

A written plan developed to address how an organization will react to a natural or man-made disaster.

Disaster Recovery Plan

A(n) _______________ is an evaluation of the impact that a loss of critical functions will have on the organization.

Business Impact Assessment

The plans a business develops to continue critical operations in the event of a major disruption.

Business Continuity Plan

An agreement in which similar organizations agree to assume the processing for the other in the event a disaster occurs is known as a(n) _______________.

Fault Tolerance

A backup that includes only the files that have changed since the last full backup was completed is called a(n) _____________.

Differential backup
