Answer Posted / guest
Answer: B
An effective business continuity plan includes steps to
mitigate the effects of a disaster. Files must be restored
on a timely basis for a backup plan to be effective. An
example of deterrence is when a plan includes installation
of firewalls for information systems. An example of recovery
is when a plan includes an organization's hot site to
restore normal business operations.
