Explanation
A disaster recovery plan (DRP) focuses specifically on restoring IT systems and data after a disruption. Data backup and recovery procedures are the core component of any DRP - they define how data is backed up, where backups are stored, and how systems are restored. While the other options (physical security, incident response contacts, risk assessment) are important security elements, they belong to broader security programs. Physical security is part of facility planning, incident response contacts belong in an IRP, and risk assessments are part of risk management frameworks - not the DRP itself.
