A 'Cold' site is a backup site that has the necessary infrastructure to resume operations but does not have any active systems or data. It takes a more extended period to set up and become fully operational compared to 'Hot' or 'Warm' sites. This type of site is often used as a cost-effective disaster recovery solution where immediate resumption of operations is not critical.
