EC-Council 312-38 Exam - Topic 6 Question 113 Discussion

Posted by Ariel on Nov 19, 2025 at 08:43 PM

Henry needs to design a backup strategy for the organization with no service level downtime. Which backup method will he select?

Suggested Answer: C

A hot backup, also known as an online backup or dynamic backup, is the process of backing up data while the system continues to be in operation. This means that there is no need for system downtime or interruption in services while the backup is taking place. It is mostly used in systems where operations are critical and cannot afford any downtime, such as databases and servers that must be available 24/7. The hot backup method allows for data to be backed up at regular intervals with minimal impact on the system's performance, ensuring that the organization can maintain continuous service levels.
