An internal auditor observed that the organization's disaster recovery solution will make use of a cold site in a town several miles away. Which of the following is likely to be a characteristic of this disaster recovery solution?
A cold site is a backup facility that has the necessary space and infrastructure (e.g., power, cooling, telecommunications) but does not have the servers and other resources pre-installed and ready to use. This means that in the event of a disaster, the organization will need to procure and set up the necessary servers and equipment before the site can be operational. Therefore, the characteristic of this disaster recovery solution is that servers are not available and need to be procured.
The answer must be C Based on GTAG - Business Continuity Management page 13 Cold recovery plan/capabilities. - A recovery plan exists. - Recovery site(s) have been identified with space and base infrastructure needed to perform the recovery. - Recovery resources (e.g., servers) are not available at recovery site(s) and likely need to be procured. - Data likely needs to be restored (probably from tape backups). - Typical recovery time is 14 to 30 days.
Pretty sure C is right. Warm site is 2 days to 2 weeks.
the correct answer is c
It's C.
