An administrator performs a risk calculation to determine if additional availability controls need to be in
place. The administrator estimates that a server fails and needs to be replaced once every 2 years at a
cost of $8,000. Which of the following represents the factors that the administrator would use to
facilitate this calculation?
A.
ARO= 0.5; SLE= $4,000; ALE= $2,000
B.
ARO=0.5; SLE=$8,000; ALE=$4,000
C.
ARO=0.5; SLE= $4,000; ALE=$8,000
D.
ARO=2; SLE= $4,000; ALE=$8,000
E.
ARO=2; SLE= $8,000; ALE= $16,000
I would pick A as my answer – The calculation is based on a year. If the cost of the server is 8k every other year that means the cost for the year is 4k (SLE = 4k)
