Before conducting full-functional continuity testing, an information security manager should verify that teams and individuals responsible for recovery have been identified and trained on their roles and responsibilities. This will ensure that the testing can be executed effectively and efficiently, as well as identify any gaps or issues in the recovery process. Risk acceptance by the business, copies of plans kept offsite and plans documented in simple language are all good practices for continuity management, but they are not as important as having clear roles and responsibilities defined before testing.
