Feedback
The information is not provided accurately and the written work is not in a cohesive
manner. The company TCS is mainly based on the digital data but there is no mention of
safeguarding or any kind of steps taken to protect its data. Definition of the concept is written in
detail but later in the analysis section work is not written informatively. In a detailed manner and
there is no such evidence which provides that the company is prepared to survive major disaster.
Few grammatical errors need to be corrected and the work has to be more concise. It will be
more clear and to the point if more specific points are added to the written work by stating what
the company have or is how the company prepared to face disaster.
