ITPEC IP October 2022 Question 71
ITPEC IP October 2022 — Question 71 of 100
A suitable BCP designates another office to assume head-office functions, identifies priority work, and defines the takeover procedure. Because the scenario assumes total loss of the head office, continuity depends on an alternate command location and predetermined steps for sustaining critical operations.
Answer (c)
Why not others:
- fire-resistant materials are preventive safety measures but do not provide continuity after total destruction
- waiting for instructions from the destroyed head office creates paralysis
- insurance and eventual relocation provide financial recovery, not immediate operational continuity
Key rule: A BCP must specify critical activities, alternate resources, authority, and executable recovery procedures for the assumed disruption.
