Explanation

According to ISO 22301 and ISO 22313 guidelines on business continuity strategies, organizations must determine the resource requirements to continue prioritized activities at an acceptable level following a disruption. These core resource categories explicitly include physical infrastructure (premises/facilities), information and data, information and communication technology (technology/ICT systems), and equipment and consumables (supplies).

Why Incorrect

E: Data is typically grouped together with "Information" (as "information and data" in the standard) rather than being treated as a separate, distinct resource category. F: Knowledge is managed under organizational competence (People) or documented information, rather than being a standalone operational resource category for BC strategies.
