During an audit of a reciprocal disaster recovery agreement
between two companies, the IS auditor would be PRIMARILY
concerned about:
A. the soundness of the impact analysis.
B. hardware and software compatibility.
C. differences in IS policies and procedures.
D. frequency of system testing.
Answer Posted / guest
Answer: B
For a reciprocal agreement to be effective, hardware and
software at the two sites must be compatible. Processes to
ensure this occurred must be in place. Choice D, frequency
of system testing, is a concern, but the reason for
considering this is that it tests hardware and software
compatibility. Choice A is an issue when examining the
planning process, not the reciprocal agreement. Choice C is
not an issue since the organization can have differences in
policies and procedures and still be able to run their
systems on each other?s sites in the event of a disaster.
