The PRIMARY objective of testing a business continuity plan is to:
A. familiarize employees with the business continuity plan.
B. ensure that all residual risks are addressed.
C. exercise all possible disaster scenarios.
D. identify limitations of the business continuity plan.
Explanation:
Testing the business continuity plan provides the best evidence of any limitations that may exist. Familiarizing employees with the business continuity plan is a secondary benefit of a test. It is not cost effective to address residual risks in a business continuity plan, and it is not practical to test all possible disaster scenarios.
