ECCouncil EDRP 312-76 Question # 44 Topic 5 Discussion

NFPA 1600 (National Fire Protection Association Standard on Disaster/Emergency Management and Business Continuity Programs) is a widely recognized standard that provides a comprehensiveframework for managing disasters and ensuring business continuity. It covers all phases—prevention, mitigation, preparedness, response, continuity, and recovery—and defines disasters explicitly.

Option B (ISO 27005):This is an information security risk management standard, not specific to disaster or business continuity programs.

Option C (INCITS 483-2012):This standard relates to virtualization security, not disaster management or business continuity.

Option D (ISO 27031):This focuses on ICT readiness for business continuity, a narrower scope than NFPA 1600.

EDRP v3 references NFPA 1600 as a key standard for disaster recovery and business continuity planning, emphasizing its holistic approach (Module: Business Continuity Management).
