Exam CISSP topic 1 question 32 discussion

The answer is B. Anticipate. Crisis management is the process of planning and responding to unexpected events that can have a negative impact on an organization. One of the key traits of crisis management is the ability to anticipate potential problems and develop plans to mitigate their impact. This means being able to think ahead and identify potential risks, as well as having a plan in place to deal with them if they do occur.

C. Strategic Crisis management typically involves making high-level decisions and setting priorities to manage the situation effectively. It is strategic because it focuses on ensuring that the organization’s overall mission and critical operations are maintained or restored as quickly as possible during a disaster. It involves coordinating response efforts, allocating resources, and ensuring leadership oversight during the crisis.

Wide focus encloe it all

B is the answer; when you anticipate an event, it may go wrong or better.

The correct answer is C. Strategic. In a disaster recovery (DR) test, crisis management involves taking a strategic approach to handle unforeseen events and ensure business continuity. Crisis management focuses on high-level decision-making, prioritization of resources, and long-term planning to mitigate the impact of a disaster. The other options refer to different aspects: A. Process refers to the structured steps or procedures, which are more tactical than strategic. B. Anticipate is related to proactive risk management but doesn’t capture the broader, high-level focus of crisis management. D. Wide focus refers to considering multiple aspects, but the core of crisis management in DR is strategic planning and leadership.

Anticipating potential issues and challenges is a key aspect of effective crisis management, allowing organizations to prepare and respond proactively to minimize impact.

crisis management refers to the overall coordination of an organization's response to a disruptive event. Strategy is more important than the process.

Crisis management involves identifying potential risks and developing strategies to mitigate them. This is a unique trait of crisis management, as it focuses on proactive measures to prevent or minimize the impact of crises.

Wide focus best characterizes crisis management in a disaster recovery test. Process: While important, simply having a process in place is not enough for effective crisis management. Anticipate: This is a critical component, but it doesn't fully capture the dynamic nature of crisis management. Strategic: While strategy is essential, it's only one aspect of crisis management. Wide focus encompasses the broader scope of crisis management, including: Coordination: Managing multiple stakeholders and resources. Decision-making: Making rapid and informed decisions under pressure. Communication: Effective internal and external communication. Problem-solving: Addressing unexpected challenges and finding solutions. A wide focus ensures a comprehensive approach to managing a crisis effectively.

Process seems to be the more logical answer. A. Following process is paramount to DRP.

Answer: B Anticipate https://blog.hubspot.com/service/crisis-management-skills https://www.nsf.org/knowledge-library/creating-successful-crisis-management-plan https://hbr.org/2020/04/4-behaviors-that-help-leaders-manage-a-crisis

A. The question refers to what crisis management seeks to verify when a DRP is activated. And what we seek to verify is the crisis management process. The question does not ask what is the best approach to testing the DRP and crisis management process; If so, the correct answer would be to do it in "anticipate", but this is not the focus of the question.

B - Management mindset Option B - Anticipate is a trait of crisis management in a disaster recovery test. Crisis management involves rapidly responding to unplanned events and anticipating issues or complications that may arise. Option A process tends to be more reactive. Option C a strategic focus is tactical and in-the-moment. Option D crisis management often has a narrow focus on the immediate emergency rather than a wide focus.

A is the correct answer in my opinion

In a disaster recovery (DR) test, the trait of crisis management among the options provided would be option D: Wide focus. Crisis management refers to the activities and strategies employed to effectively respond to and handle a crisis or disaster situation. It involves coordinating resources, making critical decisions, and managing the overall response during a crisis.

Going with B. "Process" isn't really a trait whereas "Anticipate" is. Also, the AIO textbook goes over different DRP testing and conducting testing/exercises to improve results (actions from teams and individuals) over time. In other words, training people to ANTICIPATE or be ready for certain events in order to carry out the DRP (which would be where processes can come into play). -CISSP AIO Exam Guide: Ninth Edition pg.10601-1064
