What to change
Inventory resources by where they are stored and controlled, not by whether they appear on the same website. Ask the supplier to trace representative public downloads and identify their recovery source. Confirm the organisation can access that source independently of the failed service or departed supplier. A drill should restore or reconnect a harmless sample document, making clear which parts of the public experience depend on separate recovery procedures.
A worked example
Illustrative example
Illustrative test: A restored guide's public document link resolves to the intended recoverable file.
How to check the result
The recovery plan covers both page code and essential externally stored assets.
A mistake to avoid
A repository backup does not necessarily contain every file the website links to.
Your action checklist
Use these checks to prepare a discussion with your team or supplier. Tick a check when you have recorded the decision or evidence, rather than when a feature has simply been promised.
