CISM study material · question 957 of 1000

Why does NIST expect external organisations and interconnected system partners to be notified?

  1. They are entitled to notification under the standing contracts that are already in place
  2. They must approve the activation of the plan
  3. They may be able to supply the replacement equipment at short notice if they are asked
  4. They may be harmed by not knowing, or may hold recovery duties themselves
Show the answer

Answer: D. They may be harmed by not knowing, or may hold recovery duties themselves

SP 800-34r1 states points of contact at external organisations and interconnected system partners should be notified because they could be affected by the outage or have recovery responsibilities of their own.
