Description

A critical component of disaster recovery planning is testing, which involves verification of the effectiveness of the disaster recovery solutions. Currently, there are several limitations that plague disaster testing efforts such as the inability to create realistic disaster scenarios and test them in a production environment. Cyber Range Concept of Operations (CONOPS) present an opportunity for overcoming these challenges. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the application of Cyber Range CONOPS to disaster recovery testing. We use a case study approach to observe the development of a disaster recovery program in a large enterprise. We seek to gain an insight into the design and implementation of a disaster recovery program, using the concept of Cyber Ranges.
