Disaster recovery (DR) in the IT industry refers to an organization’s ability to restore access and functionality to critical IT infrastructure, software, and systems after a natural or human-made disaster. Whether caused by a hurricane, system failure, cyber-attack, or human error, disasters can disrupt business operations and lead to data loss.
