ADVREL08-BP03 Implement secure and privacy-preserving recovery mechanisms for collaboration workloads
Ad data requires security and preservation of privacy. Implement tooling and systems that preserve secure data and avoid privacy breaches when collaborating with first and third parties, and verify that you have disaster recovery and automated backup mechanisms in place.
Implementation guidance
-
Design recovery procedures that maintain data encryption throughout the process.
-
Implement point-in-time recovery for privacy-protected datasets.
-
Configure automated backup verification with privacy controls intact.
-
Set up secure backup encryption key rotation policies.
-
Establish recovery time objectives (RTOs) aligned with privacy requirements. This is because privacy requirements can significantly extend RTOs by adding mandatory verification and security steps.
-
Implement secure state management for interrupted privacy computations. For example, if encryption fails during recovery, then halt the process rather than expose data; if privacy controls can't be verified then deny access until controls are restored; If secure state can't be maintained then terminate the computation safely
-
Create automated disaster recovery testing procedures.
