Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

The backup policy of the company requires high security and easy recovery of data. Therefore, you should take a full backup daily with the

previous night's tape taken offsite. Full backup is a good choice because it makes data restoration easier as compared to differential or

incremental backup. For safe storage, a backup tape less than twenty-four hours old should be kept offsite.
