Management policy
and procedures used to guide an enterprise response to a perceived loss of
mission capability. The Contingency Plan is the first plan used by the
enterprise risk managers to determine what happened, why, and what to do. It
may point to the COOP or Disaster Recovery Plan for major disruptions. [CNSSI_4009:2010]
(I) A plan for
emergency response, backup operations, and post- disaster recovery in a system
as part of a security program to ensure availability of critical system
resources and facilitate continuity of operations in a crisis. [NCS04] (See:
availability.) [RFC4949:2007]
A plan that is
maintained for disaster response, backup operations, and post-disaster recovery
to ensure the availability of critical resources and to facilitate the
continuity of operations in an emergency situation. [NIST-SP800-57:2007]
The development

IT contingency
planning is one modular piece of a larger contingency and continuity-planning
program that encompasses IT, business processes, risk management, financial
management, crisis communications, safety and security of personnel and
property, and continuity of government. Each piece is operative in its own
right, but together can create a coordinated synergy that efficiently and
effectively protects the entire organization. [NIST-SP800-100:2006]
Management policy
and procedures designed to maintain or restore business operations, including
computer operations, possibly at an alternate location, in the event of
emergencies, system failures, or disaster. [NIST-SP800-34:2002]
A plan for
emergency response, backup operations, and post-disaster recovery maintained by
an organization as a part of its security program that will ensure the
availability of critical resources and facilitate the continuity of operations
in an emergency situation.
Synonymous with
disaster plan and emergency plan.
[IRM-5239-8:1995]
In colloquial
English, a contingency is something that can happen, but that generally is not
anticipated. Planning for contingencies often requires a more imaginative
approach, because contingencies are inherently not obvious. Large
organizations, such as governments, are often criticized for not planning for
contingencies because the construction of plans to deal with contingencies
often involves thinking outside the box. Beforehand, contingencies are hard to
predict; this failure to appreciate contingencies ahead of time has led to the
formulation of Murphy's law.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contingency
Sets out a course
of action that is maintained for emergency response, backup operations, and
post-disaster recovery. The purpose of the plan is to ensure availability of
critical resources and facilitate the continuity of operations in an emergency.
The plan includes procedures for performing backups, preparing critical facilities
that can be used to facilitate continuity of critical operations in the event
of an emergency and recovering from a disaster.
