So, we all know about the criteria for designating a records series (or
records class) as a Vital Record, and the methods of protection for
records designated as such: duplication, dispersal, off-site storage, and
on-site protection.
But, let's take a scenario: Let's say that in an organization all
electronic records are reliably backed up on a regular schedule. And let's
assume this to be a perfect world where the backups all work 100% of the
time. And for good measure, let's say the organization employs replication
technology as part of its DR plan, and all electronic records are included
in this system.
Question: Under the above-described scenario, is there any reason to give
any electronic records in this perfect system a "Vital Records"
designation? What would the point be? And what additional measures would
you take to segregate and further protect this subset of electronic
records on your system from those that are already being done? (remember,
don't leave the scenario)
Talk amongst yourselves. (Oh, and do share your thoughts with the List as
well.)
