Selected Answer: B
o Priority of Response: In a critical situation like a data center fire, the immediate priority is to activate the disaster recovery plan to minimize disruption and ensure business continuity. o Leveraging Existing Plans: Since the merger is recent, the CIO should utilize the existing incident response plans from both companies A and B, while coordinating with IT leaders from each side to manage the situation effectively.

Selected Answer: B
B - Review the incident response plans, and engage the disaster recovery plan while relying on the IT leaders from both companies: I'm going to sound like a salty engineer here but if you're a Day-1 CIO/CISO and SHTF, you engage the DRP and let the IT leaders at each site handle their equipment. ...and otherwise stay out of the way. You'll get the details your want in my AAR.... sir. (Not speaking from ANY type of experience on this one).
