Show Answer
Correct Answer: B

Documentation of workaround processes to keep a business function operational during recovery of IT systems is a core part of a business continuity plan (BCP). A BCP is designed to ensure that critical business functions can continue during and after a disaster, and it includes plans for maintaining operations, which may involve temporary, alternative processes if IT systems are down. While a disaster recovery plan (DRP) focuses specifically on restoring IT systems, the BCP covers a broader scope, including workaround processes to maintain business operations.
