Answer: D

Explanation:

Business continuity may be defined as "the capability of an organization to continue the delivery of products or services at pre-defined acceptable levels following a disruptive incident”,[1] and business continuity planning [2][3] (or business continuity and resiliency planning) is the process of creating systems of prevention and recovery to deal with potential threats to a company.[4] In addition to prevention, the goal is to enable ongoing operations before and during execution of disaster recovery.[5] Business continuity is the intended outcome of proper execution of both business continuity planning and disaster recovery.
