Keep backups with backup plans covering recovery times, complete and accurate copies (configuration and cloud data included), storage at a safe, separate location, access controls, restoration, and retention. Check backup integrity regularly, keep at least partial redundancy of systems, assets, people and communication channels, and test restores and redundancy and record the results.
