Contingency planning is an important part of the cybersecurity process. It is necessary to have a plan for mitigating and recovering from damage.
In your journal, you will reflect on cryptography and contingency planning. Specifically, you will discuss cryptography, keys, algorithms, business continuity, and disaster recovery.
Your journal entry should be three or more sentences per prompt and address the following questions:
- What cryptographic applications are used in information system security?
- What is business continuity management?
- What is a disaster recovery plan (DRP)?
- What role do backups play in disaster recovery?
