A retail company wants to establish the frequency at which it needs to back up its critical data to ensure it can be restored in case of a disruption with the least amount of acceptable data loss.
Recovery Point Objective (RPO)defines themaximum acceptable amount of data lossmeasured in time. It determines how often backups should occur to avoid losing critical business data.
NIST SP 800-34 Rev. 1:
“RPO represents the point in time prior to an outage to which systems and data must be restored to resume business operations.”
CDP is a method; RPO is thestrategic planning metric.
