6.Information Disaster Plan
One of the most gratifying things we saw, during the visitations to all school and District Offices, was that every file server had a backup system. The tapes were not always changed every day, but by and large backups were done on a regular basis. This is com- mendable, as many school systems do not have regular backups, in fact many organizations don’t have regular backups.
Disaster Recovery
CrashPlan was a product implemented in 2008 that provided the ability to provide ongoing backup services for all staff across the school district.
With the deployment of staff laptops and the replacement of stationary computers with mobile devices the district required a solution that could provide an incremental backup for a device or user any where, any time if they were connected to an Internet connection. The district CrashPlan instance can be located at the following URL:

Disaster recovery includes not only the files on file servers, but access to them. All passwords should be written down and placed in a safety deposit box. These passwords lists should be regularly, that is monthly updated. Full documentation of the following should be completed: All network hardware, routing, mapping, inventory, WAN Design, LAN Design, system setup, file server setup and proxy setup.
