Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) — Question 129

Security is a critical yet often overlooked consideration for BCDR planning.
At which stage of the planning process should security be involved?

Answer options

• A. Scope definition
• B. Requirements gathering
• C. Analysis
• D. Risk assessment

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Security should be involved during the Scope definition stage to ensure that all security requirements and considerations are factored in from the beginning. If security is addressed later in the process, it might lead to gaps or vulnerabilities in the BCDR plan. The other options, while important, do not primarily focus on establishing the foundational security elements required for effective BCDR planning.
