An IT Managers Guide to Disaster Recovery: A Layered Approach

By Jon Pertwee MSc.

The ability to recover swiftly from disruption is not optional for modern organisations, it is essential. An IT Manager's Guide to Disaster Recovery: A Layered Approach presents a structured, strategic framework for designing and implementing effective disaster recovery (DR) practices within today's complex IT environments.

This guide introduces a layered methodology that aligns technical recovery with core business infrastructure. From governance and infrastructure resilience to backup integrity, application restoration, and cross-functional team coordination, each layer contributes to a comprehensive and executable recovery strategy.

Written for IT managers, infrastructure leaders, and business continuity professionals, the book offers practical guidance on risk assessments, business impact analyses, dependency mapping, testing, and communication protocols. The result is a detailed, role-aware approach to building a Disaster Recovery Plan that aligns with business strategy and regulatory requirements.

With a focus on clarity, accountability, and operational readiness, this book serves as both a planning tool and an execution manual, ensuring organisations can recover with speed, structure, and confidence.
