Explanation
The primary objective of a Business Continuity Plan (BCP) is to ensure that critical business functions can continue during and after a disruptive event such as a disaster, cyberattack, or major incident. It focuses on maintaining operations, not just recovering afterward. Preventing incidents (A) is a security objective, not the BCP's primary focus. Avoiding recovery strategies (C) and disregarding coordinated response (D) are directly contrary to what a BCP is designed to achieve.
