Produced by Techsoup Global, the publication covers many topics, including documentation, backup, privacy, encryption and human-made disaster recovery.  The manual can also be adapted for use by individual organizations. You can view this helpful document by visiting www.cacda.net and selecting ‘Planning and Community Info’.
