Audit of information technology continuity planning for mission critical systems/applications at Health Canada and the Public Health Agency of Canada : final report / Office of Audit and Evaluation.: H14-548/2016E-PDF ; H14-548/2016-1E-PDF

"The audit focused on mission critical systems/applications (MCA) in Health Canada (HC) and the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC). All critical services delivered by HC and PHAC depend on one or more MCA being available during a disruption in operations. Information technology (IT) continuity planning is a key part of business continuity planning. The delivery of critical services could be seriously compromised or may not be performed if MCAs are not available during a business disruption or a disaster. IT continuity plans (commonly known as disaster recovery plans) and business continuity plans are vital to the delivery of critical services for HC and PHAC"--Executive summary, page i.
