Topic #: 1
[All SSCP Questions]

Which of the following statements pertaining to a Criticality Survey is incorrect?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

The Criticality Survey is implemented through a standard questionnaire to gather input from the most knowledgeable people. Not all personnel that is going to be part of recovery teams is necessarily able to help in identifying critical functions of the organization.

The intent of such a survey is to identify the services and systems that are critical to the organization.

Having a clearly stated purpose for the survey helps in avoiding misinterpretations.

Management's approval of the survey should be obtained before distributing it.

I vaguely recall that the survey's intent is to identify critical systems, but I can't remember if that makes option D incorrect or not.

I think option A sounds right because gathering input from all personnel seems crucial for recovery teams, but I might be mixing it up with another practice question.

I remember discussing how criticality surveys are essential for identifying key services, but I'm not sure if management's approval is always necessary before distributing them.

I'm pretty sure the Criticality Survey is to determine which of the organization's systems are the most 'critical' for keeping the business running. You know, like the ones that can't be 'surveyed' without the whole place collapsing. Just a thought.
