Section: INFORMATION SECURITY PROGRAM MANAGEMENT
Explanation:
Some patches can conflict with application code. For this reason, it is very important to first test all patches in a test environment to ensure that there are no conflicts with existing application systems. For this reason, choices C and D are incorrect as they advocate automatic updating. As for frequent server updates, this is an incomplete (vague) answer from the choices given.

Section: INFORMATION SECURITY PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT

Explanation
The percentage of compliant servers will be a relevant indicator of the risk exposure of the infrastructure.
However, the percentage is less relevant than the overall trend, which would provide a measurement of the efficiency of the IT security program. The number of patches applied would be less relevant, as this would depend on the number of vulnerabilities identified and patches provided by vendors.

Explanation
In a major disaster, staff can be injured or can be prevented from traveling to the hot site, so technical skills and business knowledge can be lost. It is therefore critical to maintain an updated copy of the detailed recovery plan at an offsite location. Continuity of the business requires adequate network redundancy, hot site infrastructure that is certified as compatible and clear criteria for declaring a disaster. Ideally, the business continuity program addresses all of these satisfactorily. However, in a disaster situation, where all these elements are present, but without the detailed technical plan, business recovery will be seriously impaired.
