Answer: D
The correct choice is restoring the IT systems and data
after a disaster. The IT department of an organization is
primarily responsible for restoring the IT systems and data
after a disaster at the earliest possible time. The senior
management of the organization is primarily responsible for
developing the business continuity plan for an organization.
They are also responsible for selecting and approving the
strategy for developing and implementing a detailed business
continuity plan. The organization should identify a person
in management as responsible for declaring a disaster.
Although IT is involved in all the other three components,
it is not primarily responsible for them.
