If backup is necessary then the users must coordinate a backup plan. This may either be an individual backup done by the users themselves or coordinated with the system managers into a regular system backup plan. Properly protecting them is essential. Facilities that process sensitive or mission essential information must have locked doors, limited access, and sign-in sheets. BNL computers used off-site are to be protected from unauthorized use and theft.
Incidents can be minor, important, or significant.
