Which term best describes getting people and supplies into position to commit the act?

• A. Dry Run
• B. Deploying Assets
• C. Test of Security
• D. Elicitation

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is rehearsing a plan before taking action. A dry run is a practice session where the team goes through the steps, roles, timing, and logistics as if the act were about to occur, and it includes placing people and supplies in their spots to verify everything works together. The aim is to uncover any gaps or timing issues and confirm readiness without actually carrying out the act.

Deploying assets would imply moving resources into position to execute, which is more about real preparation for action rather than rehearsal. A test of security focuses on evaluating defenses, not staging a plan. Elicitation is about extracting information, not arranging personnel or materials.
