Selected Answer: C
C. Review the contract and DR capability. The auditor should first review the contract and the disaster recovery (DR) capability to understand the specific terms and commitments made by the cloud service provider (CSP) regarding disaster recovery. This includes verifying whether the CSP has a tested DR plan, the responsibilities of both the organization and the CSP, and any related service level agreements (SLAs). This step is crucial to ensure that all necessary DR measures are in place and are compliant with the organization's requirements and expectations.

Selected Answer: C
The answer to the question is C. The auditor's NEXT course of action should be to review the contract and DR capability. This information can be found on page 329 of the Certificate of Cloud Auditing Knowledge Study Guide. "Does the CSP BC/DR plan meet the customer SLA requirements?" This implies that reviewing the contract and DR capability would be a good next step for the auditor, as it would help determine if the CSP's plan meets the organization's requirements.
