A pharmaceutical research organization completes a Business Impact Analysis (BIA) for its clinical trial data management system. The BIA determines that during an unplanned system outage, the organization can tolerate losing a maximum of 15 minutes of uncommitted trial records, while the system itself must be restored to functional operation within 6 hours. Which of the following metrics represents the 15-minute maximum data loss threshold?
- Recovery Point Objective (RPO)Cevap
- BRecovery Time Objective (RTO)
- CMaximum Tolerable Downtime (MTD)
- DMean Time Between Failures (MTBF)
Cevap
Recovery Point Objective (RPO)
The Recovery Point Objective (RPO) represents the maximum acceptable amount of data loss measured in time prior to an incident. In this scenario, limiting lost trial records to 15 minutes defines the organization's RPO.
