QuestionQ55

Contingency Management

You are advising a school district on disaster-recovery planning. If a disaster impacts the district’s primary IT centers, staff must be able to operate from an alternate location. However, budget is a concern. Which of the following is most appropriate for this client?

  • A Cold site
  • B Off site
  • C Hot site
  • D Warm site
Explanation

A cold site is the lowest-cost alternate recovery facility because it typically supplies space and basic supporting infrastructure without fully operational systems. It is appropriate when minimizing disaster-recovery cost is more important than achieving the fastest possible recovery time.
