The present study describes the current relevance of designing a Disaster Recovery Plan (DRP) for modern businesses, even more for those which have a Data Center (DC) inside their infrastructures The main purpose of any DRP is to achieve the continuity of the most important services for the enterprise, this being more important in times of COVID-19 pandemic due to the extreme technological dependence required DRPs try to minimize the risks that may cause any affectation on a critical service Based on field studies, a risk analysis is executed according to ISO27001 standard and a risk treatment matrix is done to reduce the emergence probability, having identified the power back-up failure as the main risk in the analyzed DC A private cloud-based recovery design is also proposed in the event of a possible impact due to power and back-up procedure failures According to the final analysis and execution of the DRP, it is concluded that the recovery of service is performed in an adequate time to preserve the critical business services running, despite electrical failures © 2020 IEEE
