protected against risks identified during the strategy development
               phase. As with buildings and facilities, there are two main methods of

               providing this protection.

               Physically Hardening Systems You can protect systems against
               the risks by introducing protective measures such as computer-safe
               fire suppression systems and uninterruptible power supplies.

               Alternative Systems You can also protect business functions by
               introducing redundancy (either redundant components or completely
               redundant systems/communications links that rely on different
               facilities).


               These same principles apply to whatever infrastructure components
               serve your critical business processes—transportation systems,
               electrical power grids, banking and financial systems, water supplies,
               and so on.
