Assessment Objective

Determine if:

• CP-07a. an alternate processing site, including necessary agreements to permit the transfer and resumption of [Assignment: system operations] for essential mission and business functions, is established within [Assignment: time period] when the primary processing capabilities are unavailable;
• CP-07b.
  • CP-07b.[01] the equipment and supplies required to transfer operations are made available at the alternate processing site or if contracts are in place to support delivery to the site within [Assignment: time period] for transfer;
  • CP-07b.[02] the equipment and supplies required to resume operations are made available at the alternate processing site or if contracts are in place to support delivery to the site within [Assignment: time period] for resumption;
• CP-07c. controls provided at the alternate processing site are equivalent to those at the primary site.
