Which choice below is NOT considered an appropriate role for senior
management in the business continuity and disaster recovery process?

A.
Delegate recovery roles

B.
Closely control media and analyst communications

C.
Publicly praise successes

D.
Assess the adequacy of information security during the disaster
recovery

Explanation:
The tactical assessment of information security is a role of
information management or technology management, not senior
management. In addition to the elements of answers a, b, and c
above, senior management has many very important roles in the
process of disaster recovery, including:
Remaining visible to employees and stakeholders
Directing, managing, and monitoring the recovery
Rationally amending business plans and projections
Clearly communicating new roles and responsibilities
Senior management must resist the temptation to participate handson
in the recovery effort, as these efforts should be delegated.
Information or technology management has more tactical roles to play,
such as:
Identifying and prioritizing mission-critical applications
Continuously reassessing the recovery sites stability
Recovering and constructing all critical data
