What should an organization do to ensure that they have an effective Business Continuity Plan?

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation (250–350 words)

===========

The EC-Council CCISO program stresses that the effectiveness of a Business Continuity Plan (BCP) is ensured through regular testing, exercises, and refinement. CCISO documentation explains that tabletop exercises, simulations, and functional tests validate assumptions, reveal gaps, and improve organizational readiness.

Reviewing the plan infrequently (Option B) is insufficient, redefining RTOs (Option C) is only one component, and disaster recovery exercises (Option D) focus narrowly on IT systems rather than full business operations.

CCISO aligns BCP governance with ISO 22301, emphasizing continuous improvement through testing. Therefore, Option A is correct.
