QuestionQ872

Information Security Risk Management

What is the BEST reason an organization would choose to adopt Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS)?

  • A It transfers the risk associated with recovery to a third party.
  • B It eliminates the need for the business to perform testing.
  • C It eliminates the need to maintain offsite facilities.
  • D It lowers the annual cost to the business.
Explanation

DRaaS providers host and manage backup and recovery infrastructure in the cloud, so a subscribing organization does not need to build, staff, or maintain its own secondary/offsite data center for disaster recovery purposes. This is the defining operational advantage of DRaaS, distinguishing it from traditional in-house DR planning where an organization must provision and maintain its own offsite recovery site.
