Which of the following is the MOST important element to ensure the successful recovery of a business during a disaster?
A. Detailed technical recovery plans are maintained offsite
B. Network redundancy is maintained through separate providers
C. Hot site equipment needs are recertified on a regular basis
D. Appropriate declaration criteria have been established
Correct Answer: A
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
In a major disaster, staff can be injured or can be prevented from traveling to the hot site, so technical skills and business knowledge can be lost. It is therefore critical to maintain an updated copy of the detailed recovery plan at an offsite location. Continuity of the business requires adequate network redundancy, hot site infrastructure that is certified as compatible and clear criteria for declaring a disaster. Ideally, the business continuity program addresses all of these satisfactorily.
However, in a disaster situation, where all these elements are present, but without the detailed technical plan, business recovery will be seriously impaired.
