A company's risk assessment identifies that a power outage at the primary data center could last up to 8 hours. The company's RTO for its CRM system is 4 hours. The current DR plan relies on a backup generator that only has fuel for 2 hours. Which option best addresses this risk while considering cost?

Move the CRM system to a cloud provider with a 99.99% availability SLA.

Arrange a fuel delivery contract that guarantees refueling within 2 hours of an outage.

Accept the risk because the probability of an 8-hour outage is low.

Install a larger generator with a 12-hour fuel capacity.

During a major network outage, a company's DR team needs to inform employees, customers, and the executive team. The communication plan currently lists only the IT manager's personal email as the primary contact method. Which improvement best strengthens the communication plan?

Create a single distribution list that includes all employees, customers, and executives.

Designate the IT manager as the sole spokesperson for all communications.

Require all employees to check their email every 15 minutes during an outage.

Establish multiple communication channels, including a toll-free hotline, SMS alerts, and a status page, with assigned roles for updates.

What is the purpose of redundancy in network design?

To reduce the cost of network equipment

To eliminate single points of failure

To simplify network configuration

A university's network team is conducting a risk assessment. They identify that a single fiber cut could disconnect the entire campus from the internet because all uplinks leave the building through one conduit. Which mitigation directly addresses this risk?

Install a second fiber link that uses a different physical path and connects to a different ISP.

Move all servers to a cloud provider.

Increase the bandwidth of the existing fiber link.

Implement a firewall with intrusion prevention on the network edge.

What is the purpose of a risk assessment in network operations?

To replace the need for security controls

To identify potential threats and vulnerabilities that could impact network operations

To guarantee that all risks are eliminated

To document all network devices and their IP addresses
