continue operations if the main location is unable to function. These alternate locations can be in different

buildings, different cities, or even different states, which depend on the type of disaster being prepared

for.

A hot site includes all the equipment and data necessary to take over business functions. A mobile site

can be set up in an outside space close to an impacted site.

Answer the following question(s):

1. In what type of situation would you choose a hot site rather than a mobile site? Explain your

answer.
