AuditsThe primary objective for auditing existing plans and
processes is to identify business and technology recovery strengths and weaknesses with existing disaster recovery and/or
business continuity programs. Programs may also include offsite storage and alternate operation centers.
Contingency Now accomplishes these audits by using our in-house audit program that is scalable to the size and sophistication of
your enterprise operations and deliverables. Contingency Now also provides an objective and non-biased audit assessment document then
reports the results to your executive stakeholders or designated committee. Leveraging the Disaster Recovery International Institutes
(DRII's) ten (10) best practices, our audit tools will ensure your team receives measurable risk feedback accompanied with risk
mitigation recommendations.
Contingency Now implements and supports three (3) mutually exclusive audits:

For each audit listed above, Contingency Now will provide a detailed audit assessment
