An audit-ready, framework-mapped SAP disaster recovery & resiliency policy — the governance and control requirements your SAP security program needs, ready to adopt and tailor to your organization.

Establishes an enterprise-grade SAP disaster recovery and resiliency framework that enables organizations to restore critical systems, data, and business operations with precision, speed, and control following disruptive events. Designed for complex SAP landscapes, this policy bridges the gap between enterprise continuity expectations and SAP-specific recovery challenges, including tightly coupled system dependencies, integration recovery gaps, misaligned recovery objectives, and incomplete validation of end-to-end business functionality. It defines the recovery governance model, tier-based recovery requirements, architectural resilience expectations, testing strategy, and validation processes required to ensure coordinated recovery execution, achievement of defined RTO and RPO targets, and sustained operational continuity across all SAP systems and supporting infrastructure.

Writing that from a blank page means researching the risks, drafting control requirements, and mapping them to NIST CSF 2.0, ISO/IEC 27001, SOC 2, and more — then keeping it current as your landscape and obligations change.

What this replaces

  • A GRC analyst or security consultant drafting and maintaining an equivalent policy: many hours at $150–$300/hour — often $3,000–$8,000+ for a single defensible, SAP-aware policy.
  • Generic enterprise policy templates: not SAP-aware and not mapped to your SAP landscape, roles, and controls.
  • Starting from scratch: weeks of research and drafting to make it accurate, defensible, and audit-ready.

What you get

  • A configurable Microsoft Word policy — fully editable, professionally formatted, and ready to adopt.
  • Complete policy — 6 governed sections defining the disaster recovery & resiliency requirements, control expectations, and accountability across your SAP program.
  • Grounded in SAP security and enterprise cybersecurity practice and mapped to NIST CSF 2.0, ISO/IEC 27001, SOC 2, and more — not generic boilerplate.
  • Roles & Responsibilities with First- and Second-Line accountability, plus framework, regulatory, and assurance mappings ready for audit.
  • Built to customize — bracketed placeholders such as [Organization Name] and [Control Frequency] — so it fits how your organization actually operates.
