You work as a CSO (Chief Security Officer) for Tech Perfect Inc. You have a disaster scenario and you want to discuss it with your team members for getting appropriate responses of the disaster. In which of the following disaster recovery tests can this task be performed?
test, the members of a disaster recovery team present with a disaster scenario and then, discuss on appropriate responses. These
suggested responses are measured and some of them are taken by the team. The range of the simulation test should be defined carefully for
avoiding excessive disruption of normal business activities.
Answer option D is incorrect. The structured walk-through test is also known as the table-top exercise. In structured walk-through test, the
team members walkthrough the plan to identify and correct weaknesses and how they will respond to the emergency scenarios by stepping
in the course of the plan. It is the most effective and competent way to identify the areas of overlap in the plan before conducting more
challenging training exercises.
Answer option A is incorrect. A full-interruption test includes the operations that shut down at the primary site and are shifted to the recovery
site according to the disaster recovery plan. It operates just like a parallel test. The full-interruption test is very expensive and difficult to
arrange. Sometimes, it causes a major disruption of operations if the test fails.
Answer option B is incorrect. A parallel test includes the next level in the testing procedure, and relocates the employees to an alternate
recovery site and implements site activation procedures. These employees present with their disaster recovery responsibilities as they would
for an actual disaster. The disaster recovery sites have full responsibilities to conduct the day-to-day organization's business.
