Section: INFORMATION RISK MANAGEMENT
Explanation:
BIA is an essential component of an organization's business continuity plan; it includes an exploratory component to reveal any vulnerabilities and a planning component to develop strategies for minimizing risk. It is the first crucial step in business continuity planning. Qualitative and quantitative risk analysis will have been completed to define the dangers to individuals, businesses and government agencies posed by potential natural and human-caused adverse events. Assigning value to assets is part of the BIA process. Weighing the cost of implementing the plan vs. financial loss is another part of the BIA.

Role-based access control provides access according to business needs; therefore, it reduces unnecessary- access rights and enforces accountability. Audit trail monitoring is a detective control, which is 'after the fact.' Privacy policy is not relevant to this risk. Defense-in-depth primarily focuses on external threats

The best approach to determine how to protect newly acquired data assets prior to integration is to perform a risk assessment. A risk assessment will identify the various threats and vulnerabilities associated with the data assets and help the organization develop an appropriate security strategy. This risk assessment should include an assessment of the security controls in place to protect the data, a review of the data architecture, and a review of any contractual requirements related to security.
