Bank Solutions Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity: A Case Study for Business Students
Camara, Steve; Crossler, Robert; Midha, Vishal; Wallace, Linda
Journal of Information Systems Education, v22 n2 p117-122 Sum 2011
Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity (DR/BC) planning is an issue that students will likely come in contact with as they enter industry. Many different fields require this knowledge, whether employees are advising a company implementing a new DR/BC program, auditing a company's existing program, or implementing and/or serving as a key participant in a company program. Often times in the classroom it is difficult to find real world practice for students to apply the theories taught. The information in this case provides students with real world data to practice what they would do if they were on an engagement team evaluating a DR/BC plan. Providing students with this opportunity better prepares them for one of the jobs they could perform after graduation. This case gives students experience working at the individual level making decisions, at the dyadic level analyzing other people's decisions, and at the group level presenting an agreed upon analysis. (Contains 1 footnote and 4 endnotes.)
