Alternate Processing Site |
Shared |
n/a |
The organization:
a. Establishes an alternate processing site including necessary agreements to permit the transfer and resumption of [Assignment: organization-defined information system operations] for essential missions/business functions within [Assignment: organization-defined time period consistent with recovery time and recovery point objectives] when the primary processing capabilities are unavailable;
b. Ensures that equipment and supplies required to transfer and resume operations are available at the alternate processing site or contracts are in place to support delivery to the site within the organization-defined time period for transfer/resumption; and
c. Ensures that the alternate processing site provides information security safeguards equivalent to that of the primary site.
Supplemental Guidance: Alternate processing sites are sites that are geographically distinct from primary processing sites. An alternate processing site provides processing capability in the event that the primary processing site is not available. Items covered by alternate processing site agreements include, for example, environmental conditions at alternate sites, access rules, physical and environmental protection requirements, and coordination for the transfer/assignment of personnel. Requirements are specifically allocated to alternate processing sites that reflect the requirements in contingency plans to maintain essential missions/business functions despite disruption, compromise, or failure in organizational information systems. Related controls: CP-2, CP-6, CP-8, CP-9, CP-10, MA-6.

Separation From Primary Site |
Shared |
n/a |
The organization identifies an alternate processing site that is separated from the primary processing site to reduce susceptibility to the same threats.
Supplemental Guidance: Threats that affect alternate processing sites are typically defined in organizational assessments of risk and include, for example, natural disasters, structural failures, hostile cyber attacks, and errors of omission/commission. Organizations determine what is considered a sufficient degree of separation between primary and alternate processing sites based on the types of threats that are of concern. For one particular type of threat (i.e., hostile cyber attack), the degree of separation between sites is less relevant. Related control: RA-3. |

Identifies Environmental Threats — As part of the risk assessment process, management identifies environmental threats that could impair the availability of the
system, including threats resulting from adverse weather, failure of environmental
control systems, electrical discharge, fire, and water.
• Designs Detection Measures — Detection measures are implemented to identify
anomalies that could result from environmental threat events.
• Implements and Maintains Environmental Protection Mechanisms — Management
implements and maintains environmental protection mechanisms to prevent and
mitigate environmental events.
• Implements Alerts to Analyze Anomalies — Management implements alerts that are
communicated to personnel for analysis to identify environmental threat events.
• Responds to Environmental Threat Events — Procedures are in place for responding to environmental threat events and for evaluating the effectiveness of those policies and procedures on a periodic basis. This includes automatic mitigation systems
(for example, uninterruptable power system and generator backup subsystem).
• Communicates and Reviews Detected Environmental Threat Events — Detected environmental threat events are communicated to and reviewed by the individuals responsible for the management of the system and actions are taken, if necessary.
• Determines Data Requiring Backup — Data is evaluated to determine whether
backup is required.
• Performs Data Backup — Procedures are in place for backing up data, monitoring
to detect backup failures, and initiating corrective action when such failures occur.
• Addresses Offsite Storage — Backup data is stored in a location at a distance from
its principal storage location sufficient that the likelihood of a security or environmental threat event affecting both sets of data is reduced to an appropriate level.
• Implements Alternate Processing Infrastructure — Measures are implemented for
migrating processing to alternate infrastructure in the event normal processing infrastructure becomes unavailable. |
