CP-02 [M] Contingency Plan

Control

  1. Develop a contingency plan for the system that:
    1. Identifies essential mission and business functions and associated contingency requirements;
    2. Provides recovery objectives, restoration priorities, and metrics;
    3. Addresses contingency roles, responsibilities, assigned individuals with contact information;
    4. Addresses maintaining essential mission and business functions despite a system disruption, compromise, or failure;
    5. Addresses eventual, full system restoration without deterioration of the controls originally planned and implemented;
    6. Addresses the sharing of contingency information; and
    7. Is reviewed and approved by [Assignement: organization-defined personnel or roles];
  2. Distribute copies of the contingency plan to [Assignement: organization-defined key contingency personnel (identified by name and/or by role) and organizational elements];
  3. Coordinate contingency planning activities with incident handling activities;
  4. Review the contingency plan for the system [Assignement: frequency];
  5. Update the contingency plan to address changes to the organization, system, or environment of operation and problems encountered during contingency plan implementation, execution, or testing;
  6. Communicate contingency plan changes to [Assignement: organization-defined key contingency personnel (identified by name and/or by role) and organizational elements];
  7. Incorporate lessons learned from contingency plan testing, training, or actual contingency activities into contingency testing and training; and
  8. Protect the contingency plan from unauthorized disclosure and modification.

Discussion

Contingency planning for systems is part of an overall program for achieving continuity of operations for organizational mission and business functions. Contingency planning addresses system restoration and implementation of alternative mission or business processes when systems are compromised or breached. Contingency planning is considered throughout the system development life cycle and is a fundamental part of the system design. Systems can be designed for redundancy, to provide backup capabilities, and for resilience. Contingency plans reflect the degree of restoration required for organizational systems since not all systems need to fully recover to achieve the level of continuity of operations desired. System recovery objectives reflect applicable laws, executive orders, directives, regulations, policies, standards, guidelines, organizational risk tolerance, and system impact level. Actions addressed in contingency plans include orderly system degradation, system shutdown, fallback to a manual mode, alternate information flows, and operating in modes reserved for when systems are under attack. By coordinating contingency planning with incident handling activities, organizations ensure that the necessary planning activities are in place and activated in the event of an incident. Organizations consider whether continuity of operations during an incident conflicts with the capability to automatically disable the system, as specified in [IR-4(5)](#ir-4.5) . Incident response planning is part of contingency planning for organizations and is addressed in the [IR](#ir) (Incident Response) family.

CP-02(01) [M] Coordinate with Related Plans

Control

Coordinate contingency plan development with organizational elements responsible for related plans.

Discussion

Plans that are related to contingency plans include Business Continuity Plans, Disaster Recovery Plans, Critical Infrastructure Plans, Continuity of Operations Plans, Crisis Communications Plans, Insider Threat Implementation Plans, Data Breach Response Plans, Cyber Incident Response Plans, Breach Response Plans, and Occupant Emergency Plans.

Assessment Objective

contingency plan development is coordinated with organizational elements responsible for related plans.

CP-02(03) [M] Resume Mission and Business Functions

Control

Plan for the resumption of [Selection: all; essential] mission and business functions within [Assignement: time period] of contingency plan activation.

Discussion

Organizations may choose to conduct contingency planning activities to resume mission and business functions as part of business continuity planning or as part of business impact analyses. Organizations prioritize the resumption of mission and business functions. The time period for resuming mission and business functions may be dependent on the severity and extent of the disruptions to the system and its supporting infrastructure.

Assessment Objective

the resumption of [Selection: all; essential] mission and business functions are planned for within [Assignement: time period] of contingency plan activation.

CP-02(08) [M] Identify Critical Assets

Control

Identify critical system assets supporting [Selection: all; essential] mission and business functions.

Discussion

Organizations may choose to identify critical assets as part of criticality analysis, business continuity planning, or business impact analyses. Organizations identify critical system assets so that additional controls can be employed (beyond the controls routinely implemented) to help ensure that organizational mission and business functions can continue to be conducted during contingency operations. The identification of critical information assets also facilitates the prioritization of organizational resources. Critical system assets include technical and operational aspects. Technical aspects include system components, information technology services, information technology products, and mechanisms. Operational aspects include procedures (i.e., manually executed operations) and personnel (i.e., individuals operating technical controls and/or executing manual procedures). Organizational program protection plans can assist in identifying critical assets. If critical assets are resident within or supported by external service providers, organizations consider implementing [CP-2(7)](#cp-2.7) as a control enhancement.

Assessment Objective

critical system assets supporting [Selection: all; essential] mission and business functions are identified.

Assessment Method
