what is impact analysis..

Answer / ravikanth

The result of analysis is a business impact analysis
report, which describes the potential risks specific to the
organization studied. One of the basic assumptions behind
BIA is that every component of the organization is reliant
upon the continued functioning of every other component,
but that some are more crucial than others and require a
greater allocation of funds in the wake of a disaster. For
example, a business may be able to continue more or less
normally if the cafeteria has to close, but would come to a
complete halt if the information system crashes.
