Exchange Backup & Recovery
Documented governance for Exchange backups: responsibilities, retention and recovery targets.
Overview
Backup and recovery for Exchange often lacks clear ownership, consistent retention rules and aligned recovery objectives, leading to divergent practices, unclear incident response expectations and weak compliance evidence.
Exchange Backup & Recovery establishes a documented governance framework that allocates responsibilities, sets retention schedules and recovery point and time objectives, defines testing and compliance reporting obligations, and sets acceptable risk thresholds while excluding routine restores, procurement, vendor selection and product development from the governance remit.
