Fred identified that his organization was vulnerable to mainly two risks:
a. One was a sudden power outage that could damage critical data.
b. Second was the malicious attachment in an email. Since Fred’s organization received many emails enquiring about the services from unknown sources.
To face these risks, Fred decided to take some cautionary measures. Despite his office being in a locality where power was seldom disrupted, there had been instances in the past when the authorities shut down power without warning owing to an oncoming storm. Hence, Fred had a backup generator installed. Then, Fred asked his IT team to install a malware and spam protection software at the mail server to scan all the emails coming to the organization. Additionally, he also had an eight-hour backup system installed in his organization’s server room. This would give him enough time to properly power down the servers. These two steps by him greatly mitigated the two primary risks faced by his organization. Which process did Fred go through?
