BCM aims to reduce risks and develops plans for restoring business activities if they are interrupted by a disaster. The purpose of the paper is to analyze and describe two standards, Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) and Control Objectives for Information and Related Technology (COBIT), especially their mapping for the improved planning and implementation of the BCM as well as the increased control over the BCM activities. COBIT is used more as a management framework, providing management tools, such as control objectives, metrics and maturity models in order to complement the control framework. ITIL includes process steps and tasks because it is more oriented towards IT processes (process framework), defining the best practice for IT service management. Within this mapping, ITIL processes may be used to achieve and demonstrate compliance with COBIT control objectives for BCM process.展开更多

They’re now laying more emphasis on service quality of net work and insuring secure and expedite net-traffic even under unpredictable disas trous circumstances. Only by this way, a good enterprise image can be shaped and win ratification from users and society among fierce market competition.Neverth eless, research material on telecom network disaster recovery is insufficient at present in China. This article will refer to some of the research successes ach ieved by Lucent Technologies Bell Lab on sustaining the US communication network . Through expounding several basic concepts and frame models of business continu ity and disaster recovery of telecom network, the authors furthermore put forwar d some methods of how to recover from telecom network disasters.展开更多
