Business Continuity Planning and Disaster Recovery Planning, Mind Map

Mind Map is a think tool that reflects instantly what goings on your head, it’s perfect to help in your study improving the power of your mind!
It’s help you easily remember points that you already studied, as CISSP certification has a lot of topics probably you will need a way to keeping your brain reminding lightly the CBK domains.

I found a great site that make available this maps MindCert.com you shoud visit. The Mind Map can be download clicking in the image.

Exta TIP: Tony Buzan suggests using the following foundation structures for Mind Mapping:

1. Start in the centre with an image of the topic, using at least 3 colours.
2. Use images, symbols, codes and dimensions throughout your Mind Map.
3. Select key words and print using upper or lower case letters.
4. Each word/image must be alone and sitting on its own line.
5. The lines must be connected, starting from the central image. The central lines are thicker, organic and flowing, becoming thinner as they radiate out from the centre.
6. Make the lines the same length as the word/image.
7. Use colours – your own code – throughout the Mind Map.
8. Develop your own personal style of Mind Mapping.
9. Use emphasis and show associations in your Mind Map.
10. Keep the Mind Map clear by using radial hierarchy, numerical order or outlines to embrace your branches

CISSP questions: Business Continuity Planning (BCP)

Which of the following focuses on sustaining an organization's business functions during and after a disruption?
Business continuity plan
Business recovery plan
Continuity of operations plan
Disaster recovery plan

Question 1154 | Difficulty level: 3/5 | Relevancy: 3/3
Correct answer: Business Continuity Plan BCP
Details: A business continuity plan (BCP) focuses on sustaining an organization's business functions during and after a disruption. Information systems are considered in the BCP only in terms of their support to the larger business processes. The business recovery plan (BRP) addresses the restoration of business processes after an emergency. The BRP is similar to the BCP, but it typically lacks procedures to ensure continuity of critical processes throughout an emergency or disruption. The continuity of operations plan (COOP) focuses on restoring an organization's essential functions at an alternate site and performing those functions for up to 30 days before returning to normal operations. The disaster recovery plan (DRP) applies to major, usually catastrophic events that deny access to the normal facility for an extended period. A DRP is narrower in scope than an IT contingency plan in that it does not address minor disruptions that do not require relocation.
