|a Disaster recovery planning is an active topic that has become a necessity for each and every organisation whether small, medium or large business. Disaster recovery elements of the contingency planning are taken lightly in most organisations. Disaster recovery Planning is the preparation for disaster whether artificial or natural causes. The domain includes several activities, methods and strategies in implementing and recovering data in the advent of disaster scenario. Thus, due to the threats faced by ABCON Nigeria namely virus, infected emails (spam), data loss or theft and human error, ABCON does not have an up-to-date disaster recovery model that will help in recovering their key business functions during and after disaster. Lack of employee security awareness training can make the organisation stagnant during disaster scenario. A data disaster recovery model is proposed to the organisation to mitigate and recover their important data to ensure business continuity and confidentiality of critical documents. The data disaster recovery model has six phases which are disaster preparedness, disaster risk assessment, disaster prevention, disaster response, immediate disaster recovery and documentation and lesson learnt concurrently. The proposed data disaster recovery model will be validated using questionnaires by experts in ABCON.
