Question 10

Explanation

The correct answer: Establishing a secondary data center to serve as a backup in the event of a disaster: Having a secondary data center in a different geographical location ensures that when a natural disaster impacts one location, the other can take over, ensuring continuity of operations. This secondary location should have replicated data and services so that it can become the primary center during and after the disaster until the primary center is restored. The incorrect answers: Implementing a remote access solution for employees to access company resources from home: While this is an important consideration for business continuity, especially if employees cannot access the primary office, it doesn't address the loss of the main data center or the services it provides. Ensuring that all employees have access to the same resources and applications as they would in the office: This is essentially a restatement of the remote access solution. It's crucial for business continuity, but it doesn't ensure the availability of those resources if the main data center is compromised. Implementing a disaster recovery plan to restore operations after the disaster has occurred: A disaster recovery plan (DRP) is crucial for restoring normal operations after a disaster, but the question specifically mentioned a Continuity of Operations (COOP) plan. The primary goal of COOP is to maintain operations during and immediately after a disaster, whereas DRP focuses on recovering after the event.
