Purpose:
The Data Backup Policy document establishes the activities that need to be carried out by each Business Unit, Technology Unit, and Corporate Unit (departments) within the organization.
All departments must utilize this methodology to properly backup and storage media that contains critical electronic data records. All electronic records existing on the organization’s data processing systems must be backed up and sent to an offsite location according to the Offsite Storage Requirements of this policy. Retention standards must be defined and put into action to support business and regulatory requirements.
