9. Zebra Medicine is an online pharmaceutical firm. Zebra has a small systems staff that designs and writes Zebras customized software. The data center is installed in the basement of its two-story headquarters building. The data center is equipped with halon-gas fire suppression equipment and an uninterruptible power supply system.

Because the programming staff is small and the work demands have increased backups are only made whenever time presents. The backup files are stored in a locked cabinet in the data center. Recently, due to several days of heavy rains, Zebras building recently experienced serious flooding that destroyed not only the computer hardware but also all the data and program files that were on-site.

Zebras CEO has asked that you review the weak areas of their system and what controls would you put into place to keep this situation from happening in the future.
