Task description

Ensuring the functionality of IT environments

In IT environments and related contracts, the availability of services critical to operations during disruptions has been taken into account.

The IT environments of important services are backed up, for example through redundancy, so that failures of individual components do not cause service outages longer than the required service level.

IT environments can be secured with backup power or backup power connections so that power distribution can be started quickly enough and maintained for a sufficient time relative to the requirements of the operations.
