Could environmental phenomena or natural disasters have a negative impact on our AI system?
- Examples of environmental phenomena are heating, cooling and climate change.
- Examples of natural disasters to take into account are earthquakes, floods and fires. Environmental phenomena may adversely influence the operation of IT infrastructure and hardware systems that support AI systems. Natural disasters may lead to unavailability or destruction of the IT infrastructures and hardware that enables the operation, deployment and maintenance of AI systems. Such outages may lead to delays in decision-making, delays in the processing of data streams and entire AI systems being placed offline. Sources: ENISA

Recommendations
Implement a disaster discovery plan considering different scenarios, impact, Recovery Time Objective (RTO), Recovery Point Objective (RPO) and mitigation measures.
