ISC2 CISSP Practice Question

The statement is false because communication must be established as soon as a disaster is declared, not after restoration has begun. Effective disaster recovery requires clear communication channels to be established at the outset of the response phase to coordinate activities, inform stakeholders, and manage the recovery effort. Communication methods (phone trees, emergency notification systems, etc.) should be defined in the disaster or continuity plan and activated immediately when disaster strikes. Waiting until restoration begins would create significant coordination problems, delay response efforts, and potentially worsen the impact of the disaster. Early and continuous communication ensures all team members understand their roles, stakeholders are informed of progress, and regulators receive required notifications.
