Explanation

A disaster recovery plan (DRP) addresses the human element through employee training and awareness programs. People must know their roles, responsibilities, and procedures before a disaster strikes - untrained staff cannot execute a recovery plan effectively under pressure. Data backup procedures (B), IDS (C), and physical access controls (D) are technical or operational controls, not personnel-focused DRP components. Training ensures that when systems fail, the humans responsible for recovery are prepared to respond correctly and quickly.
