Ideal: Every security control should include a tested, documented, and accessible recovery path for authorized users.
Focus: Recovery design, failure mode analysis, contingency planning, disaster recovery, and engineering for restoration rather than prevention alone.
Central Question: Can a system be restored to a known, trustworthy, operationally useful state after failure?
Treats recovery as an engineered capability rather than an assumed outcome. Examine restoration dependencies, recovery sequencing, independent verification, known-good states, loss of credentials, and testing under realistic failure conditions.
