Choice "D" is correct. More than likely, the director is preparing a disaster recovery plan.
Choice "a" is incorrect. The names and locations of key vendors, the current hardware configuration, team members, and an alternate processing location all have nothing to do with a data restoration plan. Data is restored after the alternative processing location is ready. All of the data being collected is necessary to get the alternate processing location ready to go.
Choice "c" is incorrect. The names and locations of key vendors, the current hardware configuration, team members, and an alternate processing location all have nothing to do with a system security policy. This information is needed for a disaster recovery plan.
Choice "b" is incorrect. The names and locations of key vendors, the current hardware configuration, team members, and an alternate processing location all have nothing to do with system hardware policy. System hardware policy would be a policy on what kind of hardware could and could not be used in an organization. The more different kinds of hardware (and software) used in an organization, the harder it is for application systems (and hardware) to "talk" to each other.
