ISC2 Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP) Practice Question

An organization runs its primary ERP workload in its on-premises data center but maintains a warm standby environment in a secondary AWS Region as part of its disaster recovery (DR) strategy. Management asks the security team to schedule a DR exercise that will start the standby Amazon EC2 instances and process a representative slice of live production data at the AWS site, while normal operations continue at the primary site so customers are not disrupted. Which type of DR test best satisfies these requirements?

  • Conduct a parallel test that brings the AWS environment online and runs selected transactions while the primary site remains active.

  • Run a read-through (checklist) review where each team member validates the DR playbook without activating any systems.

  • Execute a full-interruption (cutover) test by shutting down the primary data center and moving all processing to AWS.

  • Perform a tabletop exercise in a conference room, verbally walking through the DR plan with all stakeholders.
