Explanation:
Unless backup media are available, all other preparations become meaningless. Recovery site location and security are important, but would not prevent recovery in a disaster situation. Having a secondary hot site is also important, but not as important as having backup media available.

Explanation:
Residual risk is the risk that remains after putting into place an effective risk management program; therefore, acceptable risk is achieved when this amount is minimized. Transferred risk is risk that has been assumed by a third party and may not necessarily be equal to the minimal form of residual risk. Control risk is the risk that controls may not prevent/detect an incident with a measure of control effectiveness. Inherent risk cannot be minimized.
