What RTO means ?

We've received the following question:

#1. The Recovery Time Objective (RTO) - is a maximum amount of time within which an activity needs to be resumed at the MBCO level (Minimum business continuity objective), or
#2. The Recovery Time Objective (RTO) - is a maximum amount of time within which an activity needs to be resumed at the full capacity.


The recovery time objective is the target time set for resumption of product, service or activity delivery after an incident. RTO is determined during the business impact analysis (BIA), and the preparations are defined in the business continuity strategy, so this means that option #1 is the correct one.

Please have a look on the following link for further explanation.
