ASSOCIATED DRATA CONTROL
This test is part of the Backup Monitoring control (DCF-99) that ensures automated notifications are sent to personnel in the event of a backup failure. Backup failures are investigated and resolved by engineering personnel following company policies and procedures.
WHAT TO DO IF A TEST FAILS
If Drata did not find any alerts configured to notify personnel when a backup fails, the test will fail. To remediate a failed test, you will need to set up alerts to notify the appropriate personnel when a backup failure occurs.
