# Operational continuity and crisis management Glesys maintains crisis management and continuity practices to ensure services can continue and be restored following major disruptions. ### Key elements: * **Crisis management model:** Defined crisis phases (preparedness, response, continuity, recovery, post-crisis review) and activation of a Crisis Management Team for major events. * **Preparedness & resilience:** Use of redundancy, backup power, failover mechanisms, and regular validation/testing activities as part of preparedness. * **Backups & restoration testing:** Backup frequency is based on system criticality, backups are encrypted, and restoration is tested at least quarterly. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
