ISC2 Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP) Practice Question
Your company hosts its inventory database on Amazon RDS in a single Region. Internal policy states that if the Region fails, the database must be available to users again within four hours, while permitting up to 15 minutes of data loss. Which restoration-planning metric does the four-hour requirement represent?
The four-hour limit specifies how quickly service must be restored after a disruption. In business continuity planning this is called the Recovery Time Objective (RTO)-the maximum acceptable duration that a system, application, or process can be unavailable before causing unacceptable impact. The 15-minute tolerance for lost data is the Recovery Point Objective (RPO). Maximum tolerable downtime (MTD) is typically longer than, and encompasses, the RTO, while "Service Recovery Benchmark" is not a standard metric in restoration planning.
