An airline's reservation system has a primary data center and a backup site that can be activated within 2 hours. The RTO for the system is 1 hour. What does this indicate about the system's resiliency capability?

The system does not meet the RTO because the backup site activation time exceeds it

The system's resiliency is adequate because the backup site is in a different location

The system's resiliency cannot be determined without a full test

The system meets the RTO because a backup site exists

Which scenario best demonstrates integration of contingency plan updates with change management?

Updating the plan's recovery procedures when a new server is added to the infrastructure

Reviewing the plan only during annual audits

Deleting the plan after a successful test

Keeping the plan unchanged despite major organizational restructuring

A company's BCP was tested and the results showed that the recovery procedure for the CRM system is outdated because the system was migrated to a new platform. What should the BCP team do to ensure the plan is effective?
