Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Always perform a DR test after any major infrastructure changes–for example, in storage hardware or upgrading of a hypervisor–as these can lead to the need to rewrite disaster recovery processes.

Detailed explanation-2: -A disaster recovery plan must be evaluated, examined, and reorganized at least once every year. Every time there are major changes made to recovery tactics, human resources, operating software, and IT infrastructure, a business continuity and disaster recovery test must be conducted.

Detailed explanation-3: -Discovering your DR plan is ineffective in the midst of a disaster is everyone’s worst nightmare. That’s why testing your DR plan ahead of time and on a regular basis is critical. Rigorous testing is the only way to uncover and fix issues in your plan. And trust me, a lot can go wrong when a disaster strikes.

Detailed explanation-4: -The recovery time objective (RTO) is the amount of time or real time during or after a disaster that can elapse without a business restoring its services and processes to acceptable levels before it will experience intolerable consequences associated with the disruption.

Detailed explanation-5: -If your organization has a disaster recovery plan in place that is routinely tested, you can fight back. By running annual disaster recovery tests, your organization will be able to identify any infrastructure vulnerabilities and fix them before they are noticed and exploited by hackers.
