B. The BCP is not version-controlled.

C. The BCP's contact information needs to be updated.

D. The BCP has not been approved by senior management.

  GenPatton Highly Voted  10 months, 2 weeks ago

Selected Answer: A

I went to the CISA review manual to solve this, and the main concern should be the lack of testing.
First: Senior management create a "business continuity policy" (Ref: Review Manual 27th edition 4.15.4). In general, senior management makes
policies, and the plebs below make plans and procedures. Therefore a business continuity plan is not necessarily senior management approved.
Furthermore there is a passage in the review manual (4.15.11) regarding auditing business continuity. The passage does not really mention senior
management, but it does mention plan testing and obtaining historical results of tests during an audit.

  KAP2HURUF 2 months, 1 week ago


Selected Answer: A

This is because a BCP that has not been tested is unproven and may not be effective in an actual disaster or business interruption scenario. Testing
is essential to identify gaps, ensure that all components of the plan work as intended, and that staff are familiar with their roles in the event of an
incident. Without testing, there is no assurance that the BCP will function correctly, which poses a significant risk to the organization's ability to
recover from an incident.

Selected Answer: A

The primary concern for an IS auditor evaluating an organization's Business Continuity Plan is its capability to sustain critical business operations
during unforeseen events. This includes assessing the plan's thoroughness, testing protocols, and the organization's capacity to recover essential
functions. Additionally, the auditor should scrutinize any involvement or reliance on external services or providers, such as Pass4SureHub.com,
ensuring their integration aligns with the overall effectiveness of the Business Continuity Plan.

Approval by Senior Management: The approval of the BCP by senior management is a fundamental step in ensuring that the BCP is considered a
valid and authoritative document within the organization. Without senior management's buy-in and approval, it may not receive the necessary
resources and attention it requires for effective implementation.

While the other issues mentioned (A, B, and C) are important and should also be addressed, the lack of senior management approval can indicate
more significant problem with the BCP's overall effectiveness and organizational commitment to business continuity planning. This oversight may
result in inadequate support, testing, or maintenance of the BCP, ultimately reducing its ability to ensure business continuity during disruptions.

Question #2 Topic 1

Which of the following would be MOST useful when analyzing computer performance?

A. Tuning of system software to optimize resource usage

B. Operations report of user dissatisfaction with response time

C. Statistical metrics measuring capacity utilization

D. Report of off-peak utilization and response time

Correct Answer: B

C (53%) B (47%)

  tapsshore Highly Voted  1 year, 6 months ago

Option C. Statistical metrics measuring capacity utilization would be the most useful when analyzing computer performance.

These metrics provide valuable information on how resources, such as CPU, memory, and storage, are being used and can help identify bottleneck
or underutilized resources. This information can then be used to optimize resource usage, such as by adding more memory or upgrading hardware
which can improve overall performance.

Option A. Tuning of system software to optimize resource usage is also important, but it's not enough to just tune the software if you don't have
an understanding of how the resources are being utilized.

Option B. Operations report of user dissatisfaction with response time can be useful in identifying specific issues that users are experiencing, but it
doesn't provide a comprehensive view of overall performance.

Option D. Report of off-peak utilization and response time is important to understand how the system behaves during non-peak hours, but it does
not give a complete picture of the system performance.

The correct answer is C. Statistical metrics measuring capacity utilization.

Statistical metrics, such as:

- CPU utilization
- Memory usage
- Disk I/O rates
- Network bandwidth usage

provide quantitative data to analyze computer performance. These metrics help identify:

- Resource bottlenecks
- Capacity constraints
- Trends in usage patterns
- Potential optimization opportunities

C. Statistical metrics measuring capacity utilization.

Statistical metrics measuring capacity utilization provide quantitative data on how effectively the computer system's resources are being utilized.
These metrics can include CPU utilization, memory usage, disk I/O rates, network bandwidth, and other relevant parameters. By analyzing these
metrics, you can identify potential bottlenecks, assess resource allocation, and determine if the system is operating at optimal levels.

While the other options may also provide valuable insights, statistical metrics measuring capacity utilization are more directly related to analyzing
overall system performance and resource efficiency. They provide objective data that allows for informed decision-making and optimization efforts

When analyzing computer performance, the most useful option would likely be C. Statistical metrics measuring capacity utilization. These metrics
provide valuable insights into how resources are being utilized and can help identify potential bottlenecks or areas of inefficiency. By monitoring
capacity utilization, one can make informed decisions about resource allocation, scalability, and system optimization. Tuning system software
(option A) can also be beneficial, but having statistical metrics to guide the tuning process would provide more accurate and objective information
Option B, the operations report of user dissatisfaction, provides subjective feedback but may not necessarily pinpoint the underlying performance
issues. Option D, the report of off-peak utilization and response time, is useful for identifying patterns and trends but may not capture the overall
performance picture.

C. Statistical metrics measuring capacity utilization would be MOST useful when analyzing computer performance. Capacity utilization metrics help
to identify if computer systems are being over or underutilized, which can be a significant factor in performance issues. Tuning of system software
to optimize resource usage can also be helpful, but it is a more specific solution rather than a general tool for analysis. Operations reports of user
dissatisfaction with response time and reports of off-peak utilization and response time can also provide valuable information, but they are more
focused on the user experience rather than analyzing performance.

C. Statistical metrics measuring capacity utilization would be MOST useful when analyzing computer performance.
Capacity utilization is a statistical measure that reflects the extent to which the resources of a system, such as memory, processor, or disk space, are
being used. It can help identify trends and patterns in the usage of system resources over time and can be used to determine whether the system
being used to its full potential or is overloaded.
