Question 600
During a routine controls assessment at a regional hospital, the IS auditor learns that the recovery plan prioritizes infrastructure servers without identifying the business processes they support. The affected operation supports patient-care scheduling and claims processing. Healthcare service continuity and protected records are at stake. Which follow-up result would BEST substantiate that the remediation operates effectively?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Correct. Approved BIA records connect business services and dependencies to measurable recovery priorities and owners. This is stronger than a manager's verbal assurance because it can be checked against the observed issue that the recovery plan prioritizes infrastructure servers without identifying the business processes they support. The reviewer must verify the remediation period and scope.
