Answer: D
Generally a cold site is contracted for a longer period at a
lower cost. Since it requires more time to make a cold site
operational, it is used generally for noncritical
applications. A warm site is generally available at a medium
cost, requires less time to become operational and is
suitable for sensitive operations. A mobile site is a
vehicle ready with all necessary computer equipment and it
can be moved to any cold or warm site depending upon the
need. The need for a mobile site depends upon the scale of
operations and a hot site is contracted for a shorter time
period at a higher cost and is better suited for recovery of
vital and critical applications.
